Motorists will not be delayed by road construction as they travel Tennessee’s highways this Memorial Day weekend. The Tennessee Department of Transportation will suspend all construction-related lane closures on interstates and state highways beginning at 12 noon Friday through 6am on Tuesday, May 26th. This will provide maximum roadway capacity for motorists expected to travel in the state this Memorial Day weekend.
Motorists may still encounter some lane closures or restrictions while traveling through long term construction projects. Drivers should be aware that reduced speed limits will be effect in work zones. Drivers convicted of speeding through work zones where workers are present face a fine of up to $500.
