I-40 is closed in both directions near the TN/NC state line due to a possible rockslide at MM 450 in Cocke County. Seek alternate routes.

myTDOT A timeframe for reopening I-40 will be established once those investigations are complete. For now, traffic on I-40 East must exit at Hartford Road (Exit 447). The established detour route for traffic heading to NC is I-81 North to I-26 East.
