Meade's Quarry

 

James White Parkway Extension

Newspaper  headlines on Sunday stating that TDOT's announcement to go forward with this extension is imminent without saying with route they will use, has a lot of people (including me) have expressed their concerns about the impact of the project. A number of of people support the no build option and at this point, so do I.  Link to Knoxville News Sentinel August 18th Article
