Quickest Way to Destin

Plans & Projects

Since the opening of the Mid-Bay Bridge in June 1993, the bridge has served the region as part of a north-south connection between I-10, Niceville and Destin. The connection is part of the local transportation system serving local citizens commuting to and from work and school and traveling to and from shopping and recreational activities and as a part of a hurricane evacuation route, serving southern Okaloosa County.

To meet the increasing regional traffic demands that are projected for the future, the MBBA developed a comprehensive Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to include new roads for the bridge along the north and south approaches and an additional bridge to parallel the existing bridge.
