Rerouting Of Highway 11 Between Sulphur Springs And Commerce Near Completion

KETR

Emily Glass, co-owner of The Venue at Two-Nineteenin downtown Sulphur Springs and former mayor, discusses the near-completion of a newly constructed section of State Highway 11 between Sulphur Springs and Commerce.  Traffic is being allowed on the new roadway, but caution is recommended because of loose gravel.  The new stretch of highway has been built to avoid some of the curves on Highway 11 near Sulphur Springs and to avoid what is considered a dangerously narrow bridge.

John Mark Dempsey is the host of the public interest program The Blacklands Café from KETR News. Dempsey is also the play-by-play announcer for Commerce Tigers Football on 88.9 FM and on ketr.org.
