The North Arch Street Bridge in Johnson City has a new name as the region continues to mark Police Memorial Week.

The bridge was re-named the David W. Smith Jr. Bridge in memory of the Johnson City Police Officer who died in the line of duty March 31, 2014.

Meanwhile, the 2nd annual DW Smith Memorial 5K run and walk will be held May 22nd, starting at the Johnson City Police Department.

Police week events continue through May 7 with the annual displays and demonstrations at the Oakdale Mall to wrap up the observances.
