Roads closed in and around Vicksburg National Military Park due to erosion

The Vicksburg National Military Park announced today that it has closed two roads in the northern part of the park.

North Union and Grant avenues are closed to vehicles and pedestrians because of road erosion.

The USS Cairo exhibit is accessible from Confederate Avenue.

Old Jackson Road in Warren County has been temporarily closed on the east side of the park because of a mudslide.

Crews are working to clear the mud and debris off the road, and it should be reopened later today.
