Mississippi Highway 184 (MS 184) is an east–west state highway in the U.S. state of Mississippi. It is a non-continuous highway, composed of segments from the previous path of U.S. Highway 84 (US 84) that have been displaced by new construction.[1]

Route description

Most of the segments of MS 184 serve as business routes, providing access from US 84 to towns where they are located.[citation needed]

MS 184 consists of eight sections that all connect with US 84 in the towns of Waynesboro, near Laurel, Collins, Prentiss, Silver Creek, Monticello, Brookhaven, Bude, and Meadville. The portion of MS 184 near the Wayne County Courthouse is the terminus of MS 63.[2]

History

The city of Collins has accepted a bid to install new lights down the stretch of highway that runs through their city. The city planning department expects to complete the work by the end of 2019.[3]
