If the Mid-South gets hit hard by winter weather this week, it’s wisest to stay off of the roads and highways. But if you’re forced to venture out, you’re better off following a few winter driving rules.

The winter storm might be making traffic move slower, but it hasn’t stopped mass transit around the Mid-South.

Governor Phil Bredesen announced Thursday that an Aeronautics Grant in the amount of $179,100 has been approved for the Millington Regional Jetport.

“From moving people to moving freight, the airports in Tennessee are vital pieces of the state’s overall economy and travel system,” said Bredesen.
