Second Series of Public Meetings for I-24 Corridor Study Tuesday Night

Study to Identify Improvements for the 185 mile Interstate Corridor

Nashville, Tenn. – The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) is working to complete the Interstate 24 Multimodal Corridor Study. The goal of the study is to identify short-and long-term solutions for improving problem spots along the entire 185 mile I-24 corridor from the Kentucky state line to I-75 in Hamilton County. It is anticipated that this study will be completed in January 2014.

TDOT has been conducting a second series of public meetings in cities along the I-24 corridor to present preliminary findings from the study and receive comments from the public and key stakeholders. Meetings have already been held earlier this month in Clarksville and Chattanooga.  The meeting tomorrow night will be in Nashville and will run from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
