Unidentified Speaker (role: Unidentified) said the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) is carrying out a project at Sam Ridley and Lowry Street that will add three new traffic signals on Lowry Street, at the ramps, and at Jefferson Pike.
The announcement said the signal pole foundations have already been poured and that "the contractor has signal installation scheduled for 04/01/2026." The speaker added that the entire project is on track to be completed by April 2026.
Why it matters: adding signals at these locations is intended to manage traffic flow where multiple turning movements converge and to address safety and congestion concerns cited in the update.
Details provided in the announcement include the three signal locations, the poured foundations, and the April 1, 2026 target for installing signal equipment. No budget, contractor name, or permit approvals were specified in the announcement.
Next steps: the speaker directed listeners to townofsmyrna.org (Project Trackers) for a full list of current projects and timelines.
