Bridge Repair to Close Lanes on I-24 in Davidson County

Nashville, Tenn. – The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) will conduct lane closures on Interstate 24 in Davidson County.

Beginning Friday, August 15, at 8 p.m. through Sunday, August 17, at 5 a.m., crews with Vulcan Construction Materials will close eastbound lanes on I-24 at Haywood Lane for bridge repair. The closure will begin with three lanes, then one lane will reopen once concrete is poured. That lane is estimated to open on Saturday morning.

This work is part of an ongoing resurfacing project covering I-24 from Haywood Lane to the Rutherford County line, included in TDOT’s 3-Year Pavement Program.

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.
