Yarlansburg Weighs Highway Survey Plans Near McCracken's Bridge
Yarlansburg residents push a survey for a new Perry highway route to bypass the village. The proposed line would move traffic east of the current road, bypass McCracken's Bridge, and pass near Jordan's store and the Baptist cemetery. Critics warn of costs and land condemnation, while some support straightening the curve. A delegation heads to Franklin with county commissioners to press officials.
