State legislators have approved a move to rename part of U.S. Highway 12 in Lake Delton in honor of a local business and community leader.
The highway would be renamed the Tom Diehl Memorial Highway. The name change recognizes the former owner of Tommy Bartlett Incorporated and a longtime Lake Delton village board member. Diehl began working with the Wisconsin Dells entertainment company in 1967 and became its president in 1981. The measure moves to the Wisconsin Senate and then the governor for final approval.
