Tennessee Department of Transportation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) monitors all road projects in the state of Tennessee. It is headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, located at the confluence of three major Interstate Highways.
Major projects TDOT has recently been involved in include the construction of a ramp between Interstate 40 and Briley Parkway in west Nashville, widening of I-40 at the Interstate 24 junction in southeastern Nashville, and the construction of State Route 840.
TDOT also manages the system of cameras and electronic signs around Nashville to deal with traffic hazards during peak volume hours. The Smartway cameras broadcast live to the major newsstations for morning news programs.
