JONESBOROUGH, Tenn. (WJHL) — Beginning on Wednesday, a portion of State Route 353 (Old State Route 34) in Jonesborough will be shifted to a temporary roadway while crews replace a bridge that crosses over Little Limestone Creek near David Crockett High School.

According to a release from the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT), the work is expected to last until June 28. The release said TDOT will shift traffic onto a temporary roadway and Hartman Drive will be closed to traffic while a box culvert bridge is replaced.
