Route description

As of 1965, the route was located in eastern Wilkinson and western Amite counties. [2] All of the route was a two-laned [3] paved road. [2] MS 572 began at the center of Centreville, near a railroad track. The route then traveled down Park Road until it exited Wilkinson County and entered Amite County. [4] After crossing the county line, MS 572 intersected MS 24 and MS 33, and MS 572 was also branded Lower Centreville Road. [1] Continuing eastward, the route exited Centreville and crossed over Beaver Creek and emerged into the village of Olio. [3] MS 572 left Olio, and ended few miles later at MS 569 at a T-intersection. Lower Centreville Road continued east, concurrent with MS 569. [1] MS 572 was maintained by the Mississippi State Highway Commission and Amite County, as part of the state highway system. [2]

History

MS 572 was designated in 1957, connecting from MS 24/33 to MS 569. The route was fully paved when it was created. [5] [6] The next year, it was extended slightly to Centreville. [6] [7] By 1960, a section of the route in Amite County was transferred to county maintenance. [7] [8] MS 572 was removed from the state highway system by 1967. [2] [9] Today, the road is known as Park Road (unsigned Mississippi Highway 946) west of MS 24 and MS 33, [10] and Lower Centreville Road east of it. [3]
