    visionHagerstown 2035 5 | Transportation Transportation Introduction An adequate vehicular circulation system is vital for Hagerstown to remain a desirable place to live, work, and visit. Road projects that add highway capacity and new road links will be necessary to meet the Comprehensive Plan’s goals for growth management, economic development, and the downtown. This chapter addresses the City of Hagerstown’s existing transportation system and establishes priorities for improvements to roads, transit, and pedestrian and bicycle facilities over the next 20 years. Goals 1. The city’s transportation network, including roads, transit, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities, will meet the mobility needs of its residents, businesses, and visitors of all ages, abilities, and socioeconomic backgrounds. 2. Transportation projects will support the City’s growth management goals. 3. Long-distance traffic will use major highways to travel around Hagerstown rather than through the city. Issues Addressed by this Element 1. Hagerstown’s transportation network needs to be enhanced to maintain safe and efficient flow of people and goods in and around the city. 2. Hagerstown’s network of major roads is generally complete, with many missing or partially complete segments in the Medium-Range Growth Area. 3. Without upgrades, the existing road network will not be sufficient to accommodate future traffic in and around Hagerstown. 4. Hagerstown’s transportation network needs more alternatives to the automobile, including transit and bicycle facilities and pedestrian opportunities. Existing Transportation Network Known as “Hub City,” Hagerstown has long served as a transportation center, first as a waypoint on the National Road—America’s first Dual Highway (US Route 40) federally funded highway—and later as a railway node.

  • Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge-Sevierville, Tn Travel Directions To/From Free Parking at Bms Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville, Tennessee
    GATLINBURG-PIGEON FORGE-SEVIERVILLE, TN TRAVEL DIRECTIONS TO/FROM FREE PARKING AT BMS GATLINBURG/PIGEON FORGE/SEVIERVILLE, TENNESSEE TO BMS There are two options for traveling from the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville area to BMS – via Blountville (to approach from the west on Highway 394) or via Johnson City (to approach from the south on Highway 11E). Highway 394 carries the heaviest load of race traffic of all the designated race routes. Via Blountville From Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville, go east on Interstate 40 and take Exit 421 (a left-side exit) to northbound Interstate 81. There is a work zone on northbound Interstate 81 at Mile Marker 60 where a truck climbing lane is being constructed, but two lanes of traffic remain open through that work zone. You can get off at either Tennessee Exit 66 (Tennessee Highway 126) or Tennessee Exit 69 (Tennessee Highway 394). Using the Exit 66 route, turn right at the bottom of the ramp along eastbound Highway 126 towards Blountville. Go through the intersection with State Route 75. Take the second right past State Route 75 (Franklin Drive) in the Blountville community. Go two blocks and turn right at the traffic signal onto eastbound Highway 394. Using Franklin Drive allows you to avoid the heavily-used intersection of Highway 126 and Highway 394. Continue east on Highway 394. Go under the US 11E bridges. Get in the right lane. Go through the traffic signal at Tennessee Highway 390, staying in the right lane. To go to Speedway Parking, take a right turn at the next intersection (White Top Road); Speedway Parking is the first driveway on the left.

Dev. > Studies Economic Development History of Interstate 81 in Virginia [1] 1 Interstate 81: The Roadway 1.1 Project Length/Location Interstate 81 is a major north-south freeway in the eastern United States. I-81 generally links the Northeast with the non-Atlantic South; more than 800 miles from its northern terminus at the Canadian border in upstate New York to its southern endpoint near Dandridge, Tenn. (about 25 miles east of Knoxville). I-81 does not enter major metropolitan areas; it serves smaller cities such as Roanoke, Va.; Hagerstown, Md.; Harrisburg and Scranton, Penn.; and Binghamton and Syracuse, N.Y. It is the freight-service back road to the Northeastern megalopolis. This study focuses on Virginia's 325 mile-long segment of I-81. Interstate 81 enters Virginia near Bristol from the Kingsport-Johnson City area of northeastern Tennessee. It exits into West Virginia's eastern panhandle north of Winchester. The largest cities on or near the highway include Bristol, Roanoke, Harrisonburg, and Winchester. I-81 is numbered as a north-south highway but lies on a northeast-southwest orientation. Its entry point from Tennessee is more than 200 miles west of its exit point into West Virginia. The map shows the location of I-81. It traverses portions of thirteen counties in Virginia. Within these counties are ten independent cities, municipal governments that are independent of any county. According to the latest U.S. Office of Management and Budget designations, these counties and cities are in six metropolitan areas and one micropolitan area.
