County officials see a better way to transport prisoners to and from the Roane County Courthouse.

“It’s going to be done this fiscal year, and hopefully this calendar year,” County Executive Mike Farmer said.
A sally port is a garage-like structure that will allow officers to take prisoners into the courthouse without exposure to the public.
