Region 1 Safety

The 3-Year Safety Plan is a comprehensive program that aims to enhance roadway safety statewide. This plan lists safety projects that TDOT intends to deliver within the next 3 years. The plan is updated annually and may be subject to change based on conditions, budget and market influences. This list does not include spot safety projects or safety improvements performed through regular maintenance operations. 

Bridge projects that are actively affecting traffic will be noted on TDOT SmartWay.
