Nashville, TN – As the next step in the Tennessee Department of Transportation’s 18-month study of the Interstate 65 corridor, a series of public meetings will be held at several locations in Middle Tennessee in October and November. TDOT invites anyone who travels I-65 on a regular basis to attend and provide feedback.

Meeting Schedule:

The I-65 Multimodal Corridor Study is an 18-month study covering a distance of 120.16 miles, from the Alabama state line to the Kentucky state line.  The I-65 Multimodal Corridor Study will identify short and long term solutions for improving problem spots along the I-65 corridor.  TDOT and its consultant team are investigating a range of multimodal solutions to address future travel demands, congestion, and safety. The team will also examine the potential for freight diversion and the ability to enhance the corridor’s economic benefits. The study is expected to be completed in summer 2017.
