TDOT: Interstate construction to halt for Easter weekend

JACKSON, Tenn. — The Tennessee Department of Transportation announces interstate construction will be halted for the Easter holiday.

Beginning at 6 p.m. on Thursday, April 6, TDOT crews and contractors will stop all interstate construction work that requires lane closures, to provide maximum roadway capacity to travelers.

Motorists may still encounter some long-term lane closures, and some workers still may be on-site in construction zones. TDOT says reduced speed limits will still be in effect.

The halt on interstate construction will run through 6 a.m. on Monday, April 10.
