Byram offers several distinct points of interest for planning a trip: Davis Road Park, whose opening hours are listed by the city; the fish stocked in Lake Dockery; and the history of the Byram Swinging Bridge. There is also the annual Byram Swinging Bridge Festival. These topics play different roles in choosing when to travel: park hours, an approximate historical date and the program for a particular festival edition each matter in different ways.

Visiting the park and opening hours

Davis Road Park is located at 2515 Davis Road. Davis Road Park is open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.; opening hours are subject to change. So check the hours again before your visit. For planning your day, the park provides a specific time reference: you can compare your preferred visiting time with the listed opening hours. The precise address helps you identify the destination clearly in your plans. This makes it easy to include a visit to the park as a separate activity.

Fish stocked in Lake Dockery

Lake Dockery is stocked with largemouth bass, sunfish and catfish. For travelers who choose destinations based on bodies of water and fish species, these listed species offer a distinct point of interest. Stocking and regulations may change; for specific plans, check the latest information from the state fisheries program.

Lake Dockery Place in Ward II

Lake Dockery Place is in Ward II on Siwell Road in the city of Byram. Since access information can change, check the latest city information before visiting.

Historical connection: Byram Swinging Bridge

The Byram Swinging Bridge was built around 1905 as a road bridge over the Pearl River. This gives it a historical connection distinct from park opening hours or an event program: the focus is on its construction date, original function and river crossing. It offers a specific point of interest for travelers interested in local heritage.

Byram Swinging Bridge Festival

The Byram Swinging Bridge Festival is held annually; dates and activities may vary from year to year. If you plan your trip around the festival, check the dates for the year you want to attend. The 2026 edition included a classic car show and more than 40 vendors selling handmade goods. This edition therefore offered different points of interest for people interested in classic vehicles and handmade products. The program and vendor offerings may change with each edition.

Choosing when to travel and finding accommodation

For the park, the listed opening hours are the practical detail to check; for the festival, it is the dates for the edition you want to attend. The bridge, in turn, offers a historical connection through its approximate construction date of around 1905, while Lake Dockery adds a water-related point of interest with its listed fish species. If the festival is the reason for your trip, start by checking its specific dates. If you plan to visit the park, check its opening hours.
