MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — A major name change is in the works for Mercury Boulevard in Murfreesboro. The name change celebration will take place on Saturday, September 18th at Patterson Park Community Center, which is located on Mercury Boulevard – the roadway that is being renamed Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard...
That was Murfreesboro City Councilman Kirt Wade who confirmed the Murfreesboro Planning Commission voted in favor of the name change on May 19th.
Wade said the new road signs will be installed soon...
The proposal to change the name of Mercury Boulevard was submitted by Councilman Wade during Black History Month, this past February.
