Bridge Inspection Operations to Close Lanes and Ramps on I-65 and Briley Parkway

Nashville, Tenn. – The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) will conduct lane closures on Interstate 65 and State Route 155 (Briley Parkway) in Davidson County.

On Tuesday, February 24, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., the following closures will take place for routine bridge inspection:

·         A right lane closure on the I-65 southbound ramp to Ellington Parkway (Exit 90A).

·         A full closure on the I-65 northbound ramp to Briley Parkway eastbound (Exit 90B) for approximately one hour during this time period.

·         Inside lane closures of Briley Parkway eastbound near mile marker 16.

Traffic will be diverted to Exit 16 and can re-enter Briley Parkway at the Dickerson Road intersection.

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 includes the possibility of up to 30 days in jail and a maximum fine of $500.
