MOTORISTS WARNED OF ROADWORK AND TRAFFIC RESTRICTIONS ACROSS MORGAN AND ROANE COUNTIES
Drivers traveling through Morgan and Roane counties should prepare for upcoming delays and adjusted traffic patterns as several active roadside projects get underway.
Authorities have issued safety advisories for three main construction zones:
-
Morgan County (SR 62): Motorists using State Route 62 over Little Clear Creek should expect possible intermittent lane closures. Drivers are urged to watch for roadside workers and remain alert to changing conditions.
-
Roane County (I-40 East): Traffic on Interstate 40 East between Mile Markers 340 and 341 is impacted by closed shoulders and reduced speed limits.
-
Roane County (US 27 & SR 61): A new traffic pattern has been introduced at the intersection of US 27 and State Route 61, where intermittent lane closures may also occur.
Transportation officials remind all drivers to exercise extreme caution, obey posted speed reductions, and remain vigilant for construction crews working near active lanes.
