Kingsport announces Clinchfield Street Bridge repairs

The City of Kingsport is pleased to announce the Clinchfield Street Bridge will be undergoing significant repairs beginning next month.

The six-month project will begin July 6 and consists of removing a portion of the existing concrete deck and replacing it with new concrete. In addition, the contractor will widen the sidewalk on the west side of the bridge.

Cost of the project is $1.275 million, and work will take 180 calendar days to complete. Southern Constructors, Inc., is the contractor for the city on this project

During the course of the project, southbound traffic coming from Stone Drive will be able to flow continuously. However, northbound traffic (heading to Stone Drive) will be detoured down Holston Valley Drive to Ravine Road to Gibson Mill Road.
