- This testing site is on the eastern/Simpson County side of the river on Gatesville Rd., east of I-55 and north of MS Hwy 27. Parking can be had on the east side of the bridge, with a foot path on the downstream side of the bridge to a sandy riverbank along the paved road right-of-way. Depending on the river level, there will be a gentle current here.
