 I-20 and US 80's western end in Mississippi is on the Louisiana State Line at Vicksburg. There are two bridges at Vicksburg. The old US 80 bridge, opened 1930 and owned by Warren County, is the black bridge on the right. It was closed in 1998 due to concrete falling from the bridge deck on the Louisiana approach. (More on the old US 80 bridge here). The I-20 bridge, opened in 1972 by the Louisiana Dept. of Transportation and Development (LDOTD), is the silver bridge on the left. Both I-20 and US 80 use the I-20 bridge to cross the river. This photo is taken from the Mississippi Welcome Center. Photo by Robert Lee on 6/24/2005.
