After months of construction and careful planning, Hinds County has announced the much-anticipated reopening of the Northside Drive Bridge in Clinton, set for December 15, 2024. This critical infrastructure project represents a significant step forward in improving local transportation and enhancing the daily lives of residents.

The Northside Drive Bridge has been closed for repairs to address structural concerns and ensure the safety of those who rely on it. The reopening will reconnect a vital thoroughfare for Clinton’s residents and businesses, easing travel and providing more efficient access across the city.

“We understand how important the Northside Drive Bridge is to our community, and we’re thrilled to see it nearing completion,” said a representative from Hinds County. “This project has been a top priority, and we’re grateful for the patience and understanding of Clinton residents during the closure.”

The bridge’s reopening will coincide with the holiday season, a time when residents often rely on local infrastructure for shopping, traveling, and visiting family and friends. The restored connection will not only provide convenience but also bolster local commerce during one of the busiest times of the year.

City officials expressed their excitement about the announcement, emphasizing the positive impact the reopening will have on the community. Updates will be provided as the December 15 date approaches to ensure residents are informed and prepared.

The City of Clinton thanks its residents for their continued patience and support as infrastructure improvements are made to ensure long-term safety and progress.
