GREEN COVE SPRINGS, Fla. – A major interchange in Clay County is a step closer to being named after a Clay County Sheriff’s Office deputy who died last year with complications of COVID-19.
The County Commission unanimously approved Tuesday afternoon to rename the intersection of State Road 23 (First Coast Expressway) and Henley Road as Sgt. Eric John Twisdale Memorial Interchange. The change will need official approval now from the state of Florida.
