- Pay to skip traffic: Tennessee picks company to build I-24 choice lanes
Tennessee selected Drive-TN, a consortium including Cintra and Transurban, to build and operate optional express lanes on Interstate 24 between Nashville and Murfreesboro. The project involves adding two optional lanes in each direction over 26 miles of I-24, where drivers can pay fees to avoid traffic using dynamic pricing. While the state is receiving a $24.8 billion concession value, critics have raised concerns regarding potential toll burdens and community impact from construction.
