Nashville, Tenn. - The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) is ramping up its pavement repair efforts to address those lingering potholes from January’s record winter storm. The department is investing an additional $15 million in a total of 121 various projects statewide over and above our annual work program. We accelerated Transportation Modernization Act dollars to supplement our state of good repair/maintenance budget. Without the extra funds, we could not afford to do this more permanent work. Media is welcome to use new b-roll of repaving with a TDOT courtesy.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) is joining states across the nation to ask motorists to Work with Us – move over and slow down for highway workers. TDOT will spread that message statewide during National Work Zone Awareness Week (April 15-19) to improve safety in Tennessee’s interstate and highway construction and maintenance work zones. This year’s theme is Work zones are temporary, your actions behind the wheel can last forever. We welcome the media to use TDOT’s PSA online or on air to help us share the message.
