MISSISSIPPI OFFICIAL MAPS
Notes:
The 1932 and 1933 maps listed below contain a revision date box in the lower left-hand corner of the map. Earlier dates listed in this box on the 1932 map are May 1932 and June 1932, which is why the presumed editions for 1932 are listed.
In addition to the main issues of Official State Highway Maps, another series of maps appear to have been issued in the mid-2000s. These do NOT state “Official State Highway Map” on the cover, and are not dated except for copyrights and codes, which cannot determine the exact issue date based on similar codes and copyrights on the Official Highway Maps (for example, the 2007 Official Highway Map is copyright 2005 and has code S012006DLM). These additional maps are not listed here.
Latest updates: 2/25/22-added 2020, 2020-21; 12/26/23-removed extraneous information
