Cave City makes safety upgrade to traffic signal.

Thanks to our team, with assistance from Entergy and Edwards Electric, we’ll no longer be diverting personnel to traffic duty during a power outage situation (especially during storms). The light will now operate off of a generator setup that is very quiet, portable, and easy to connect and engage. It can be monitored from inside a vehicle, if needed, using a mobile app and Bluetooth connection.

Thanks especially to Adam Fitzsimmons for sourcing the generator locally and saving us hundreds of dollars on the purchase. And thanks to he and Dalton Corter for sweating it out this morning to ensure that traffic flow was safe during the install.

City purchases historic downtown building for future pocket park.
