Interstate 26 Boones Creek Road Interchange

Name of Project:

Interstate 26 Boones Creek Road Interchange

Tennessee Department of Transportation Project

Work Performed

The project along Interstate 26 at the State Route 354 (Boones Creek Road) interchange (Exit 17) in Washington County involves modification and reconstruction of existing ramps and connector roads. The modifications will transform the exit into a diverging diamond interchange (DDI). The unique crisscross design allows two directions of traffic to temporarily cross to opposite sides of the roadway in order to travel across the overpass, and then cross back and resume the original travel pattern. The DDI uses concrete dividers, stop bars, traffic signals, and extensive signage to guide motorists through the interchange.
