State Route 66
|
State Route 66 (SR 66) is a state-maintained highway in eastern Tennessee, including a six-lane divided highway segment in Sevier County, a four-lane expressway in Hamblen and Jefferson counties, and a two-lane segment through mountainous terrain continuing to the northeast terminus.
A widening project was recently completed on SR 66 from I-40 to Chapman Highway/Main Street/Forks of the River Parkway (US 441/US 411). It was divided into 3 separate sections, each of which was expanded at different times. It expanded the 4-lane divided highway to a six-lane divided highway. The section closest to Sevierville was expanded first. This section stretched from Boyds Creek Highway (SR 338) to Nichols Street and began of July 15, 2009 and was completed on November 18, 2011. The second section from I-40 to Douglas Dam Road (SR 139) began in September 2010, and was completed in November 2012. The middle section from Douglas Dam Road to Boyds Creek Highway began in March 2012 and was completed in the summer of 2016, after multiple delays. |
