Drivers in downtown Franklin should be aware of a new traffic pattern at an intersection near Youngs Creek Park.
The intersection of Jackson and Monroe streets in downtown Franklin is now a four-way stop. The intersection is bordered by the Johnson County Government West Annex, Ann’s Restaurant and a public parking lot to the east, and is bordered to the west by Middle Davids Artisan Candles, a public parking lot and Youngs Creek Park.
The decision to make the intersection a four-way-stop is due to the opening of Youngs Creek Park. The new traffic pattern will ensure the safety of residents and visitors traveling in the area, according to city officials.
