From Waynesboro to Natchez
The 1987 Mississippi Legislature enacted a 1200 mile four-lane highway program known as the 1987 Highway Program (aka AHEAD Program). US-84 is included in this program; therefore, the State of Mississippi has committed sufficient funds to complete the entire route in the state as a four-lane divided highway. The 1987 Highway Program is on schedule to be completely under contract in Fiscal Year 2006.
US-84 Status (Open & Under Construction): More than two thirds of the US-84 Corridor in Mississippi is either under final construction contract or already complete and open to traffic. There are 128 miles open to traffic and 58 miles either under construction or to be placed under construction for a total route length of 186 miles.
Work to be completed: The incomplete portion of E1 Camino, East- West Corridor in Mississippi should be under final contract by June 30, 2006. The last segment should open to traffic no later than December 2008. Construction projects will be awarded to contract according to the following financial summary and as shown on the attached map:
Fiscal Year Construction Projects FY 2002 $61,300,000 FY 2003 $38,760,000' FY 2004 $43,800,000 FY 2005 $34,900,000 FY 2006 $9,000,000 Total $187,760,000
