Weekend Concrete Repairs to Close I-24 to I-840 Ramps

Nashville, Tenn. - The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) will conduct ramp closures on Interstate 24 in Rutherford County.

Beginning Friday, June 27, at 8 p.m. through Monday, June 30, at 5 a.m., Capital City Construction Services, LLC crews will close the I-24 eastbound and westbound ramps (Exit 74A) to I-840 westbound for concrete repairs. TDOT anticipates this to be the last weekend closure of this kind related to concrete repair.

No lanes on I-24 or I-840 will be closed or affected by the work. A detour will be in place for I-24 westbound motorists to use Exit 70 (SR 102) to get back on I-24 eastbound to take Exit 74A to I-840 westbound. I-24 eastbound motorists will detour using Exit 74B onto I-840, off at Exit 55B (Smyrna/70S), and back onto the I-840 ramp.
 

All work is weather-dependent. As always, drivers are reminded to allow additional time, slow down, and move over when traveling through a work zone. The Move Over Law was passed in 2006. The penalty for violating the law in Tennessee carries the possibility of up to 30 days in jail and a maximum fine of up to $500.

Motorists can alert TDOT to potholes by calling the TDOTFIX Hotline at 833-TDOTFIX or using this online form: TDOT Maintenance Request. The TDOT SmartWay Map (https://smartway.tn.gov) provides the latest construction activity traffic updates. Travelers can also call 511 for travel information.
