Pearl river valley water supply district - fannin landing circle - multi-use pathway - CON - rankin county

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded Mississippi Department of Transportation (M DOT) $207,929 under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on August 11, 2025, to construct a multi-use pathway along Fannin Landing Circle in Rankin County, Mississippi. The project extends from Fannin Landing Boat Ramps to Arbor Landing and represents infrastructure development consistent with the program's emphasis on pedestrian and bicycle facility improvements. This funding supports multimodal transportation network development, which constitutes an eligible activity under the Highway Planning and Construction program authorized by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.

M DOT administered this award as the primary recipient while partnering with Pearl River Valley Water Supply District (Ross Barnett Reservoir) as the sub-grantee responsible for project implementation. The multi-use pathway will enhance recreational and transportation connectivity at the reservoir location, delivering pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure improvements to the region. The project exemplifies M DOT's extensive portfolio of pedestrian and multimodal infrastructure projects delivered in partnership with local entities such as water supply districts and county boards of supervisors.
