The Biloxi Bay Bridge opened on November 1, 2007 – just two years after the previous bridge that crossed the Biloxi Bay was destroyed during Hurricane Katrina. The 1.4-mile-long bridge carries U.S. Highway 90 directly over the Biloxi Bay, connecting Biloxi and Ocean Springs. #HurricaneKatrina15 | Mississippi Department of Transportation
