Mississippi Highway 15 (MS 15 ) is a state highway in Mississippi . At almost 324 miles (521 km), it is the longest highway in the Mississippi Highway System . MS 15 is divided into two sections due to a large gap between Stone County and Perry County . The southern section begins at Interstate 10 (I-10) and I-110 in Biloxi and ends at a junction with MS 26 near Wiggins , and the northern section begins at a junction with U.S. Route 98 (US 98) near Beaumont and ends as a continuation as SR 125 near Walnut . It serves a total of 15 counties (Harrison , Stone , Perry , Jones , Jasper , Newton , Neshoba , Winston , Choctaw , Webster , Oktibbeha , Chickasaw , Pontotoc , Union , and Tippah ).
