State Route 35

The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) is proposing roadway improvements
along State Route 35/US 411 from near State Route 416 to near State Route 339 in Sevier
County.

The purpose of the project is to increase capacity along the SR 35 corridor and improve
traffic operations in response to regional growth. The project is needed to address existing
and forecasted congestion, provide a more reliable transportation network, and support
continued development in the area. Widening of the existing bridge over the Little Pigeon
River is required to accommodate the proposed roadway widening.

Current Status: Project is currently the preliminary design phase.

Estimated construction start: The SR 35 widening project is included in TDOT's 10-year
plan as a General Fund Transfer (GFT) project with an estimated construction year of 2031.

Estimated completion*: Construction phase is slated for fiscal year 2031.

Funding Type: State Funded
