# 8/5/26 Highway Commission

The Coffee County Highway Commission met on August 5, 2026. Members approved the agenda and prior minutes, then voted to approve a four-way stop at the intersection of the City Industrial Park access road and Old Airport Road; the proposal will also be brought to the Rural Roads and Bridges Committee. No contract award or purchasing motion was recorded. The highway report covered ongoing paving and maintenance, with crews working in Tullahoma and weather delaying paving work.

The commission discussed bridge funding and project status. A Norton Road bridge near Highway 64 was selected for the state’s high-priority bridge replacement program and is expected to proceed. Farrow’s Loop bridge work was bid at about $900,000 but was not selected for that program; the Taylor Bridge bid exceeded $1 million and is awaiting state budget funding. Members also noted that TDOT plans to replace two bridges on Highway 127, with detours likely to affect county roads. The transcript referenced a $150 million state bridge-replacement program but did not specify a new allocation or commission action on funding.
