| DATE: | February 24, 2017 | ||
| GENERAL NARRATIVE | |||
| Due to unforeseen circumstances, the aforementioned Interstate 26 cable maintenance project has been postponed indefinitely. Normal traffic patterns will resume effective immediately.
As previously released: On the morning of Friday, February 24, 2017 between the approximate hours of 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM there will be intermittent interruption of both eastbound and westbound Interstate 26 traffic at the West Stone Drive interchange in Kingsport as Charter Communications conducts cable maintenance, repair, and/or replacement in the area.
