Amount requested: $20 million

Project description:

Construction of two additional lanes on the Brownsville Bypass from east of State Route 87 to State Route 76 south of Brownsville. The current section is operating at a level of service undesirable for present and future traffic demands. The proposed improvements will enhance traffic operations and reduce the likelihood of accidents.

The project is part of the Tennessee Department of Transportation's ongoing program to improve our transportation network across the state to facilitate the movement of goods and services and provide the best facilities to allow economic development.
