A plan to realign Highland Way and connect it to the Emmett Avenue traffic light on Nashville Road will do more than improve traffic flow.
Passed by the Bowling Green City Commission on Dec. 1, a municipal order to work with property owner Sam Potter Jr. to build a new stretch of road will ultimately tie in with a commercial/residential development planned for Potterâs property and with plans to widen Nashville Road.
The municipal order calls for the city to spend up to $100,000 and for Potter to donate the land needed near his 603 Highland Way property to build a stub road of about 300 feet in whatâs called the first phase of the Highland Way realignment.
A Smiths Grove man awaiting trial in a murder case has been charged in an apparent attack on another Warren County Regional Jail inmate.
Antonio M. Wilson, 41, is charged with first-degree strangulation in the Nov. 28 incident. He was arraigned Monday in Warren District Court, and a hearing was set for Dec. 16 in front of Warren District Judge Sam Potter.
Jail staff members were called about 1 p.m. Sept. 28 to a cell after someone pressed an emergency button there, an arrest citation said. Deputies met with Devon Gault, who claimed Wilson choked him during an altercation.
Online jail records show Gault, 25, was a federal inmate who was booked into jail Nov. 9 and released Wednesday.
