The Mississippi State Port Authority at Gulfport (MSPA) received a $15.76 million project grant award from the Department of Transportation Maritime Administration under the Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP, CFDA 20.823) to fund improvements to roadways leading to and from the port's western entrance. The roadway improvements will enhance the movement of freight and military cargo through the Port of Gulfport, which is a critical regional hub for maritime commerce. The award has a period of performance through June 2028 to complete the infrastructure upgrades. The PIDP aims to improve port facilities at coastal and inland ports to enhance safety, efficiency and reliability of goods movement through ports and intermodal connections. This award will leverage MSPA's role in facilitating regional trade and supporting military logistics through targeted transportation infrastructure development.
