White Avenue Gate construction in progress
The White Avenue Gate, Keesler’s main entrance from U.S. Highway 90, is closed until about Aug. 10 for denial barriers upgrades. The Meadows Drive and Pass Road Gates are open 24/7 until construction is done. The City of Biloxi has converted the Forrest Avenue intersection at Meadows Drive to a three-way stop to accommodate the increased traffic flow to that gate. The Judge Sekul Avenue Gate is open 5:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. work days. The visitor control center at the White Avenue Gate remains open, and once a pass is authorized, sitors are directed to one of the open gates. Commercial vehicles continue to use the commercial gate on the north side of the base next to Keesler Medical Center. (U.S. Air Force photo by Kemberly Groue)
