The Jackson County Board of Supervisors is soliciting formal proposals for the relocation, preservation, and maintenance of the Roy Cumbest Bridge, a historic structure built in 1961 located over the Pascagoula River in Vancleave, Mississippi. This sale of surplus opportunity requires interested parties to submit comprehensive plans for the removal, transport, installation, and perpetual preservation of the bridge. Because the structure is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, all activities must comply with Federal Regulations and the preservation covenants established by the U.S. Secretary of the Interior. Proposals must be submitted by October 9, 2026, to Korey Hardin at Neel-Schaffer, Inc. in Biloxi, Mississippi. Applicants are required to provide proof of financial capability to execute their plans, as the selected respondent will assume all legal and financial responsibilities, including all costs associated with the relocation and preservation process. Submissions will be evaluated by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, the Federal Highway Administration, MDOT, and the Jackson County Board of Supervisors.
