The Tennessee Department of Transportation will begin repairs on Monday, March 23, 2026, for the U.S. Highway 321 bridges over Tellico Lake and Tellico Parkway. The repairs are expected to be finished by November 15, 2026.

During the closure, the U.S. Highway 321 bridges over Tellico Lake and Tellico Parkway will be reduced to one lane in each direction. The off-ramp from U.S. Highway 321 southbound to Tellico Parkway westbound will be closed.

State Route 335, U.S. Highway 411, and State Route 72 could be used to bypass the work zone.

Drivers in the area are urged to expect delays and use caution when workers are present.

The schedule is also contingent on favorable weather conditions.
