The project to widen the south end of South Parkway Street and extend the turning lane is set to begin work on Monday, June 1.
The city is asking motorists to use caution as the project gets going and to expect lane closures at times. The work will widen the road south of U.S. Highway 72 in order to extend the turning lane south to South Harper Road.
“Everything we are doing over there is to increase the traffic flow and keep it moving at a good pace so it doesn’t bottleneck around the new hotel when it gets open,” said Mayor Ralph Dance.

Civilians, veterans and descendants huddled under a tent on Shiloh National Military Park’s front lawn Monday to remember those fallen in the line of duty.
“The veterans and the fallen are the reason we have the freedom to stand here at Shiloh today,” said keynote speaker Mississippi Army National Guard Brigadier Gen. (Ret.) Harold Lomenick. “That freedom did not appear on its own. It was protected. It was defended. It was paid for by men and women who were willing to serve, and in many cases, willing to die.”
This year, in celebration of America’s 250th birthday, the park honored George Ross, the only Revolutionary War veteran interred there.
