William Howell Rogers, road named
This bill designates a one-mile stretch of Alabama State Highway Route 157 in Lawrence County as the William Howell Rogers, Sr. Memorial Mile to honor a local veteran and former public servant. The legislation requests that the Department of Transportation coordinate with local officials to name the road segment and install appropriate markers. It highlights Rogers' service as a Korean War veteran, his legal career in Moulton, and his long tenure as the city's attorney and judge. Once enacted, the primary effect is the official naming of the roadway to recognize his contributions to the community.
