On November 30, 2018, TDOT awarded the contract for the Interstate 75/Interstate 24 Interchange Modification Project. The $132.6 million project will shift the interchange to the west, widen the existing roads, and modify the Welcome Center area traffic circulation. The project will also include 11 new bridges. The planned improvements will increase the safety, efficiency, and operation of the interstate, while providing congestion relief and addressing the deficiencies of the existing interchange.
The I-75/I-24 Interchange Modification Project was funded through the state’s IMPROVE Act and expedited through the Design-Build project delivery method. Traditional construction occurring outside the existing lanes of travel will allow the interstate to remain open and limit the impact to motorists. The estimated completion date is June 2021.
