Contract Crews to Implement Traffic Shift on SR-60 Improvement Project in Bradley County

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – Beginning Thursday, June 2, 2022, at 8:00 a.m. ET, Tennessee Department of Transportation contract crews will begin shifting traffic on SR-60 from near Eveningside Drive to near Campbell Drive. Temporary lane closures for paving will take place on Thursday, June 2, 2022, and Friday, June 3, 2022.

Once paving is complete, all traffic will be shifted east roughly twelve feet. Northbound traffic will use the new temporary pavement. Southbound traffic will use the existing northbound lane and center turn lane. The shift will remain in place for several months while crews reconfigure the main entrance to Cleveland Middle School and perform grading and drainage work through the area. Signage is posted and flaggers will be on site to assist with traffic flow. Delays are expected. Please use extreme caution when traveling through the area and consider an alternate route during this time.
