Both Lanes Now Open on U.S. Highway 441 Across Norris Dam
January 21, 2005
NORRIS, Tenn. – Both lanes of U.S. Highway 441 across TVA’s Norris Dam are now open to traffic.
The northbound lane had been closed since early December to allow for work on the dam. However, high water levels on Norris Reservoir have impacted TVA’s work, requiring the repair work to be rescheduled for a later date.
TVA is the nation’s largest public power provider and is completely self-financed. TVA provides power to large industries and 158 power distributors that serve approximately 8.5 million consumers in seven southeastern states. TVA also manages the Tennessee River and its tributaries to provide multiple benefits, including flood control, navigation, water quality and recreation.
