One of our requests at last night's meeting was for TDOT to put up a project website with comprehensive info about the project.
Yvette Martinez, TDOT Region 1 Community Relations Officer, said at the meeting that she would look in to it.
We have just been advised by Ms. Martinez the request went to TDOT headquarters in Nashville first thing this morning and TDOT web personnel are already working on it. She said she would keep us posted on when the site will go live.
She also forwarded our follow-up suggestions for what information should be included on the site.
Thanks to Ms. Martinez for being so responsive.

About this site
The purpose of this site is to provide an online clearinghouse for information about the proposed Alcoa Parkway bypass and to promote public awareness and public participation in the process. We believe that the original proposal to improve the existing Alcoa Highway corridor needs a second look as a viable alternative for correcting safety and capacity problems, and that the public should have more input in selecting the preferred build alternative.
