KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — One lane of the Gay Street Bridge will be closed Monday, June 5, and Tuesday, June 6, according to the City of Knoxville.
Tennessee Department of Transportation will perform its routine annual safety inspection.
The alternating lane closure will be in effect on both days between 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. A flag team will direct traffic through the work zone.
In addition, one of the two sidewalks will also be closed.
Motorists are advised to consider an alternate route using one of the other bridges across the Tennessee River in order to avoid the inspection work.
While one side of the Gay Street Bridge will remain open to pedestrians and bicyclists during the inspection, caution should be used.
