KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Motorists traveling in East Tennessee should be aware of an oversized load that will be working its way from Knoxville to Kingsport on Wednesday, said Mark Nagi, a spokesperson for the Tennessee Department of Transportation.
Rolling roadblocks will be in place on I-40 East at Strawberry Plains, I-81 North at Mosheim and I-81 at Kingsport, TDOT said.
The roadblocks are set to begin at 12 a.m. until around 3 a.m., and the load will go through Knoxville. After that, the load is estimated to run through Morristown from 3 a.m. to 6 a.m.
From there, the oversized load will travel through Greeneville around 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. before going through Johnson City from around 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. where it will reach its destination in Kingsport.
