MURFREESBORO — The
city of Murfreesboro and MTSU will host a public meeting this week to discuss
the ongoing Middle Tennessee Boulevard widening upgrade.
The
meeting will be held from 4 to 5 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 18, at the MT Center
inside the Sam H. Ingram Building at the corner of Middle Tennessee Boulevard
and Lytle Street.
Designated
parking will be available via the Lytle Street entrance. A searchable campus

The
30-month, $15.7 million project will improve the .8-mile section of the
thoroughfare between East Main and Greenland Drive. Traffic flow and campus
parking will be impacted throughout the construction process.
At the
meeting, the project manager and city engineers will review the planned
improvements, which include divided medians with landscaping, new bike lanes
and pedestrian crossings, as well as all underground utilities and other
upgrades.
Residents
will be able to ask questions and share comments about the project, which is
expected to be completed by fall 2018.
The city
will share project updates through an interactive online map at www.murfreesborotn.gov/mtb.
