Three active TDOT projects are affecting lanes and shoulders on Highway 51 (SR-3), Charleston-Mason Road (SR-179), and the Hwy. 14 (SR-14)\/Kerrville-Rosemark corridor.<\/p>\n

Here’s a quick rundown of what’s happening, where, and for how long.<\/p>\n

Hwy. 51 near the Tipton County Landfill<\/h2>\n

Crews are building a turn lane near the Tipton County Landfill (around log mile 7\u20138, between North Myron Creek and south of Old US-51<\/strong>) as part of a wider Hwy. 51\/SR-3 widening project. The southbound outside lane and northbound inside lane are closed. Work started Aug. 11 and is expected to continue through Nov. 20<\/strong>, so plan on this being part of the regular commute picture for a while.<\/p>\n

SR-179 resurfacing, SR-54 to SR-14<\/h2>\n

Here we call these roads 179\/Charleston-Mason Road<\/strong>, Hwy. 54, and Hwy. 14<\/strong>. SR-179 is getting repaved between SR-54 and SR-14 (log mile 0\u20135). Expect intermittent lane closures in both directions daily from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., though crews are keeping at least one lane open. This project is scheduled to wrap up by Aug. 31<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Hwy. 14 \/ Kerrville-Rosemark Road widening<\/h2>\n

Heading toward the Shelby-Tipton line, the Hwy. 14<\/strong> (SR-14)\/Kerrville-Rosemark Road<\/strong> widening project continues, with shoulder and lane closures in both directions for grading, drainage, and paving work. A handful of side roads \u2014 Tracy, Idaville, Mulberry, and Gragg<\/strong> \u2014 are closed with posted detours, so give yourself extra time if one of those is normally part of your route.<\/p>\n

This is an ongoing project expected to wrap in Fall 2027<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Nothing new on SR-384, SR-59, SR-54, or US-51<\/h2>\n

As of this week, TDOT isn’t reporting any active construction on SR-384, SR-59, the Tipton County stretch of SR-54, or US-51. That could change, so it’s worth a quick check before a long trip.<\/p>\n

Plan ahead<\/h2>\n

None of these projects are full road closures, but lane and shoulder restrictions add up during peak commute hours. Give yourself a buffer, watch for workers and equipment, and consider an alternate route if needed.<\/p>\n

We’ll keep tracking this list and post an update with anything new or wrapped up.<\/p>\n
