Drivers traveling on I-24 in Marion County should be aware of upcoming road construction activities that will have an impact on traffic.
On Wednesday and Thursday, from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. local time each night, Tennessee Department of Transportation contract crews will perform a double lane closure on I-24 West between mile marker 136 and mile marker 140 to re-stripe travel lanes, meaning the interstate will be reduced to one lane in this direction.
Drivers are encouraged to use caution as they travel through this area. Signage will be in place directing drivers through the work zone. This work is weather permitting. Should inclement weather or unforeseen circumstances delay this work, it will be rescheduled to take place at a later date.
