Portions of West Baddour Parkway will be closed over the weekend for crews to conduct railroad repairs.
The Tennessee Department of Transportation says the RJ Corman Railroad Company will close West Baddour Pkwy to through traffic at the railroad crossing behind Tractor Supply for the repairs.
All businesses and residents will still have access during construction, but regular through traffic will be detoured to West Main Street.
TDOT says the work is weather-dependent, as there are chances of showers and thunderstorms in Wilson County over the weekend.
The Move Over Law, passed in 2006, was referenced by TDOT when reminding drivers to slow down and move over when traveling through a work zone. Violation can result in up to 30 days in jail and a maximum fine of up to $500.
The closure is in effect from Friday, May 30, at 8 p.m. through Monday, June 2, at 5 a.m.
