After the most recent Tennessee Department of Transportation inspection, the bridge carrying E 11th Street over Norfolk Southern's right-of-way between Peeples Street and Magnolia Street is now weight-restricted.
A maximum weight of 34 tons per vehicle, van, or tractor-trailer will be allowed over the bridge effective immediately. New warning signs alerting traffic of the restriction will be in place within seven days.
Any vehicles with a gross weight of 34 tons or greater will need to detour via E 10th Street.
