Middle Tennessee University has been notified that beginning on Monday, June 12, Middle Tennessee Boulevard will be closed ONLY from Bell Street to East Main Street.
This closure is scheduled to last for 21 days, with plans on reopening the section on Monday, July 3.
Pedestrian traffic at Bell Street and East Main Street will not be affected, but if any work needs to happen in the Bell Street crosswalk, the contractor will have staff available to assist pedestrians. The Bell Street entrance to the campus will be closed to traffic entering campus but will be open for traffic leaving the campus. The Faulkinberry Drive entrance to the campus will remain open.
Although part of Middle Tennessee Boulevard will remain open, drivers are strongly encouraged to use detour routes during this time.
The 30-month, $15.7 million widening project will upgrade the .8-mile section of the thoroughfare between East Main and Greenland Drive. The city of Murfreesboro is overseeing the work. Completion is expected by fall 2018.
