High-Impact Interstate Lane Closures in Nashville This Weekend
Drivers should plan ahead for construction on I-40 and I-65
NASHVILLE – This weekend there are two major interstate projects in Nashville that will have a significant impact on weekend travel. Drivers should take note of the following scheduled construction activity on I-65 northbound at Trinity Lane north of downtown Nashville and I-40 eastbound near the west I-40/I-65 split.
* Friday, June 17, 8:00 p.m. – Monday, June 20, 5:00 a.m., I-65 northbound at the Trinity Lane bridge will be reduced to two lanes for bridge deck repair. Drivers should consider Ellington Parkway as an alternative route.
* Friday, June 17, 10:00 p.m. – Monday, June 20, 6:00 a.m., I-40 eastbound at the Herman Street bridges on the inner loop will be reduced to two lanes for bridge joint repair. Drivers should consider I-440 and Briley Parkway as alternative routes.
Both of these repair projects involve concrete work. There will be a necessary curing time for the new concrete to harden before the lanes are opened to traffic. During this time, there is a possibility that no workers will be present, but the lanes will still be closed. As soon as the concrete reaches the appropriate strength, the lanes will be opened to traffic.
