Editing West Hattiesburg, Mississippi (section)

==Roads==
Two major highways pass near West Hattiesburg. [[Interstate 59]] forms the eastern border of the community, and [[U.S. Highway 98]] passes just north of the current CDP, through land annexed by the city of Hattiesburg. Due to recent population growth and migration the area (and Lamar County) the traffic has gotten worse on Highway 98, which has led to Highway 98 being widened from 4 to 6 lanes and recently 4 to 8 lanes (only near [[Interstate 59]]) in the area. Three major roads parallel U.S. Highway 98 (4th Street, Oak Grove Road, and Lincoln Road) have also been victim to large inflows of traffic due to the large amount of motorists trying to avoid major traffic on 98.
