Waveland paves the way for a fresh look, the city will spend 2022 rehabilitating its streets in a $2.5 million paving project.

The first of the three phases will be finished during the first half of the year as crews tackle small reclamation projects on more than 50 streets around town.

Phases two and three will cover Kiln-Waveland cutoff road and Central Avenue.

The process began a year-and-a-half ago when the state of Mississippi approved the citys bond.

City Clerk Mickey Lagasse described the Kiln-Waveland cutoff project as a total overhaul. All thats based upon a study that was done about three years ago. We had a study that evaluated every road in the city, and we took those roads that were worse and put them on that list. And its based on traffic counts, households, how many people there and those kinds of things.

The Kiln-Waveland cutoff project alone will cost about one million dollars.
