Interstate 24 in Tennessee

This page documents photos from various locations along I-24 in Tennessee.  All photos were taken by the webmaster (Adam Froehlig).

Eastbound Photos

A rare (for Interstates) "winding road" sign on eastbound I-24, just east of the US 64 interchange (Exit 127).  Photo taken July 4, 1999.
Near the top of the Monteagle Mountain downgrade on eastbound I-24.  The eastbound drop is 3 lanes along its entire length.  The yellow sign to the right is for a "runaway truck ramp" about a mile down on the left.  Photo taken July 4, 1999.
Speed limit signs heading downgrade.  Cars are 55 MPH, while trucks are 45 MPH.  Photo taken July 4, 1999.
One of the runaway truck ramps, about halfway down the grade.  Photo taken July 4, 1999.
Near the bottom of the Monteagle grade.  The right lane ends about 1/2 mile past the curve, and the speed limit goes back up to 70 MPH.  Photo taken July 4, 1999.
Overhead BGS on eastbound I-24, approaching downtown Chattanooga.  Although unsigned here, US 27 is hidden I-124.

Westbound Photos

Westbound I-24, about 2 miles south of downtown Chattanooga, with Lookout Mountain looming close ahead.  Photo taken July 5, 1999.
Around the bend to the right (from the above photo), I-24 squeezes between Lookout Mountain and the Tennessee River.  Photo taken July 5, 1999.
