Smart Fix 40 Is Here

STARTING THURSDAY:

From EAST Knoxville , your last exit off I-40 will be Hall Of Fame Drive

From NORTH Knoxville , traffic continuing WEST bound should use I-640

NORTHBOUND Alcoa Highway traffic to downtown should exit at Neyland Drive or Cumberland Avenue.  Because of lane shifts, it will not be possible to continue to I-40 EAST and exit at Henley Street.  


DOWNTOWN TRAFFIC:
Ramp from Hall Of fame to 40 WEST will close
Ramp to 40 EAST FROM Henley Street  will close

By May 17th, a temporary ramp from James White Parkwayto I-40 WEST will open

TRAFFIC PATTERN OVERVIEW


Through traffic on I-40 EASTBOUND AND WESTBOUND *MUST* use I-640.  This should add an average of 30,000 vehicles per day. 

 I-75 NORTHBOUND from Chattanooga should use I-275

I-75 SOUTHBOUND from Lexington should use I-275
