Good morning, Jackson.

Union Market welcomes visitors during 601 JXN Day Weekend and will host artist events through August while Union Station undergoes a $4.5 million renovation to add new office and work spaces scheduled to complete by summer 2026 — officials said.

A two-vehicle rollover crash on Highway 80 near Wiggins Road in Jackson injured two people who were lifted into ambulances near a Texaco gas station—police, fire and ambulance crews worked at the scene and cleared traffic by 8:36 a.m.

Councilman Vernon Hartley urged JXN Water to fix a leaking valve at the former Metrocenter Mall near the Highway 80 entrance—water has been wasted for months and lowered pressure for nearby schools and homes.

JXN Water said it repairs leaks only on public property—leaving the valve on private land unaddressed.
