HB 1905 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Appropriation; Coahoma County for making certain railroad track improvements.

HB 1905 would have provided $5 million from the state general fund to Coahoma County to cover specific railroad track upgrades between Lula and Swan Lake, including replacing ties, improving crossings, and reinforcing bridges. The funds were intended for the 2025-2026 fiscal year to support infrastructure improvements on that rail line. The bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, so it did not become law.
