The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) is proposing to construct a four-lane divided, full control of access facility between Gulfport and Wiggins, Mississippi. This north-south roadway identified as SR 601 (Canal Road) will begin at a proposed fully-directional interchange at Interstate 10 / Canal Road in Harrison County and extend approximately 35 miles northward to SR 26 near Wiggins. The proposed SR 601 Corridor would parallel and/or utilize existing segments of US 49 and would function as a interstate freeway providing a by-pass of US 49 in its most heavily congested areas.
