**LONG-TERM TRAFFIC ALERT FOR SHELBY COUNTY** We have to replace the Collierville-Arlington Road Bridge (Old State Route 205) over the Wolf River, and the best way to do that is with a full closure. The closure starts September 8th at 9 a.m. We’re expecting to reopen the bridge to traffic Fall 2027, with a full completion in Spring 2028. The Riverwalk Trail boat ramp will also be closed as part of construction activities.

From kickoff to the drive home, TDOT and the Highway Safety Office want you make safety part of game day.

We *KNOW* people are excited for this one! Full resurfacing on I-24 in Rutherford County from the Davidson County line to Baker Road is complete! After winter weather caused pavement deterioration earlier this year, crews made emergency repairs and then returned for our full resurfacing project this summer. There could be some lane closure over the next few weeks, as ramp repairs continue.

We’re about halfway through the Walton Ferry Road/Old Shackle Island Road widening project!

Crews are currently working on traffic signal foundations, storm drainage, and roadway construction. Work has moved to the west side of Walton Ferry Road, now that paving is complete on the east side and traffic has been shifted. Paving on the east side of Old Shackle Island Road is anticipated to be complete in October, where traffic will then be shifted to the new east side lane to begin work on the west side.

LONG-TERM CLOSURE ALERT: Starting MONDAY, August 31st, we will be closing the SR 211 bridge over the North Fork Forked Deer River, as well as the overflow bridge, in Dyersburg for a full replacement. A detour will be posted. The bridge is expected to be closed until Spring 2028.

One project. Two counties. Two different stages of construction. This is a look at work being done on the SR 63 widening project. In Campbell County, final paving is underway on the stretch from near Frontier Road/Woodson Lane to the Claiborne County line, and substantial completion is expected soon. Over in Claiborne County, from the Campbell County line to Hall Lane, crews are working on grading the additional lanes. The entire project is expected to be complete Fall 2026.

The I-40 at SR 104 (Exit 101) interchange improvement project is getting started, but it’s part of a bigger investment in West Tennessee. A general fund transfer approved by the Tennessee General Assembly for FY 2021–22 provided additional funding for rural interchange improvements to encourage economic development. Using those funds, TDOT’s Region 4 identified multiple I-40 interchanges in West Tennessee for improvements including I-40 at SR 1/US 70 (Exit 66) and I-40 at SR 69 (Exit 126).

The newest project, at Exit 101 in Henderson County, will extend the on- and off-ramps, add lighting and widen SR 104.

We heard everyone’s dropping their fall menus… so how about a look at some major bridge replacement getting underway in Middle Tennessee this fall?

We’re working on SR 6 bridges in *multiple* locations.
E. Main St. Bridge (SR 6) in Franklin is due for replacement. The original bridge was first built in *1929.* Work starts this fall and while drivers will have one lane in each direction for travel, those lanes will be tighter than usual. The replacement is expected to be complete December 2028.

In Sumner County we’ll be replacing both the SR 6 bridges - the East and West Fork Station Camp Creek Bridges. Center lane closures will happen first, followed by major closures in 2027. The replacement is expected to be complete in 2029.

And finally, substructure work is getting underway on the I-40 at 8th Avenue bridge replacements. The biggest travel impacts will happen next year. The replacements are expected to be complete Summer 2028.

Big transportation projects are getting big attention. Engineering News-Record is taking a closer look at Tennessee’s I-24 Choice Lanes project and the team selected to deliver it. Check out the article for an in-depth look at the project and what’s ahead:

Consortium including Cintra, Transurban, and AECOM among others will hold a 50-year revenue-risk concession.
