NASHVILLE -- State Senator Mark Pody (R-Lebanon­­­­­­­­), said today he has been informed that two Hi­­­ghway Safety Grants have been awarded to promote public safety on Cannon County roads and to curb drunk driving. Pody made the announcement after being informed by the Department of Safety and Homeland Security.

The Cannon County awards include:

• $10,000 to the Cannon County Sheriff's Department for Alcohol and Impaired Driving Enforcement

"I am very pleased that we have been able to secure these highway safety grants to help make our roads safer," said Sen. Pody. "I also appreciate all the hard work that our local officials have done in helping us to receive these funds."

The grant awards will be disbursed by the Tennessee Highway Safety Office (THSO).
