Out of the three interstates that run through Nashville: I-24, I-40, and I-65, two interstates have made the “most loathed” list out of all the interstates in the country.
Gunther Volvo in Daytona Beach surveyed 3,000 drivers across the US to determine the Top 100 roadways that drivers detested the most. WKRN compiled the results below…
Interstate 24 landed in the 52nd spot on the dealership’s list. Drivers in the survey stated that the interstate is heavily congested “especially in the Chattanooga and Nashville areas.”
However, systems have been put into place to manage traffic on the roadway. In fact, earlier this year the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) unveiled its new system designed to manage traffic on I-24.
Coming in at 88th was Interstate 40. According to the survey, drivers said the interstate “is known for traffic jams,” specifically in areas near Nashville and Memphis.
In fact, congestion on the interstate oftentimes leaves travelers stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Traffic cameras have even caught some people leaving their cars and lugging their suitcases along the side of the interstate as they rush to make their flights at Nashville International Airport.
Surprised? We aren’t either! Read more of the study from WKRN HERE.
