The Simpson County Road Department has announced the relocation of its primary public office to the Chancery Building in Mendenhall. The move is aimed at improving convenience, accessibility, and safety for county residents.
Officials said the new location provides a centralized place for the public to address questions, concerns, or service needs without having to travel to multiple sites. The relocation also enhances public safety, as heavy equipment was frequently in operation at the department’s former office, creating potential hazards for visitors.
While the primary office has moved, the former Road Department site will continue to function as the operational hub for employees and equipment. However, it will no longer be open for public access.
The department’s contact phone number remains unchanged at 601-847-7001. County officials expressed appreciation for the public’s cooperation and said they look forward to better serving the community from the new location.
