If you will be travelling this Easter Weekend, you will not run into interstate lane closures across Tennessee.
The Tennessee Department of Transportation suspended all interstate construction work Thursday. TDOT crews and contractors will stop all road construction work that requires lane closures through Monday, April 2 at 6:00 a.m.
Motorists will still encounter some long term lane closures on construction projects that will remain in place. While lane closure activity will be stopped, some workers may be on-site in construction zones and reduced speed limits will still be in effect. Motorists are urged to adhere to all posted speed limits, especially in work zones, for their own safety. Slower speeds are necessary in work zones due to the temporary layout of the roadway and will be enforced.
