Work begins on overpass at I-59/U.S. 49
SUMMARY: Travelers heading south of Highway 49 in Hattiesburg should be aware of new construction work by MDOT crews repairing an overpass hit for the second time in January by an oversized vehicle. The outside lane of I-59 South is closed for repairs, while the inside lane of U.S. 49 below the bridge is also closed. An emergency contract was awarded to Key Construction for around $300,000 to address the damage. MDOT plans to install an advance warning system for over-height loads in the area, urging drivers with vehicles higher than 30 feet to obtain a permit for access.

SUMMARY: Mississippi is facing a healthcare crisis with high rates of diabetes, hypertension, cancer mortality, kidney disease, and stroke. Millions of federal dollars are available to expand Medicaid, potentially solving the crisis. However, Governor Reeves opposes Medicaid expansion. Mississippi must prioritize affordable healthcare to address preventable health issues. State leadership successfully addressed education challenges in the past, indicating potential for healthcare improvement. While Medicaid expansion may not be the sole solution, alternative options must be explored. Time is of the essence in addressing the state's healthcare crisis before it escalates further. Expanding preventive healthcare is crucial. (100 words)
