HEAVY CONGESTION AT THE SPLIT

On May 29, 2025, traffic congestion was reported on two major highways in Loudon County, Tennessee. At 2:29 PM CDT, Interstate 40 Eastbound experienced congestion at mile marker 366.6, with no lanes blocked, suggesting delays due to high traffic volume, downstream road work, or other non-obstructive causes.
Similarly, at 3:02 PM CDT, Interstate 75 Northbound saw congestion at mile marker 82, also with no lanes blocked, indicating a potential buildup from heavy traffic or nearby disruptions.
Both incidents, reported within a short time frame, highlight busy traffic conditions in the area, possibly linked to regional travel patterns or ongoing road work, though specific causes remain unclear without further real-time data.
