The giant girders connecting the north and south sides of the Bridge Over Broad are installed, and traffic is given a green light in all directions.

This past weekend was the second weekend that traffic in all directions was shut down starting at 8:00 o'clock Friday night (8/4/2017). Just like the previous weekend, crews worked so efficiently that the installation of the giant beams was finished earlier than expected and traffic flow began far ahead of schedule.

Murfreesboro Traffic Engineer Ram Balachandran warns that there will be periodic lane changes and closures around the construction zone.

Expected Lane Closures: Monday through Friday, 8:00 pm to 6:00 am: There will be alternating lane closures on NW Broad Street, Memorial Blvd, Old Fort Pkwy and Ridgley Road for construction of the new Overpass.

There will be lane shifts and traffic interruptions. One lane will remain open in each direction at all times. Broadmor Blvd is closed to through traffic for construction work. W Lytle Street at Broad St is opened to traffic and is restricted to right-in and right-out movements only.

Westbound traffic has been shifted to the north side to align with the newly constructed ramp. On Broad St, the northbound and southbound left turn movements can only be made during a protected turn signal phase.

The massive $17.6-million Tennessee Department of Transportation (T-DOT) project is designed to reduce congestion at one of this state's busiest intersections. The work is scheduled to be completed this coming December, 2017.
