NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING
The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) will host a public meeting on April 25, 2019 to gather public input to evaluate potential transportation improvements in order to address existing and emerging issues in the I-75 corridor. The meeting will be held from 6:00 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. at the following location:
East Tennessee Historical Society
601 Gay Street
Knoxville, TN 37902
Parking is available one block from the site in the State Street Garage (500 State Street) behind the Tennessee Theatre. Parking is free when entering after 6pm.
The Tennessee General Assembly has authorized TDOT to study four interstate corridors: I-55 in southwestern Tennessee, I-155 in northwestern Tennessee, I-75 in the east-central part of the state, and I-26 in eastern Tennessee. These corridors represent more than 200 miles of freeway traveling through urban and rural counties, supported by a robust network of state and local roadways, rail, air, transit, and non-motorized transportation facilities.
The meeting is being held to provide the public an opportunity to provide comments regarding this current corridor study. Representatives of TDOT will be available to provide information on various aspects of this effort. Anyone with questions regarding the meeting should contact:
