Project Update: August 2024
Phase: Consultant Selection
The Nashville Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure (NDOT) submitted the solicitation in March 2024 for new Engineering Consultant Services to update the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (if needed), update the existing plans, acquire right-of-way (ROW), and perform Construction Engineering and Inspection (CEI) services.
Upon completion of early utility coordination (expected by the end of September 2024), we will begin to work on obtaining utility certification from the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT).

Project Description
Nashville Department of Transportation is coordinating with the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) to construct an 10-foot sidewalk, 4-foot furnishing zone, and curb/gutter along the south side of Harding Place from Danby Drive to Nolensville Pike. Pedestrian enhancements will include ADA ramps, markings, and signals. This project will extend and connect the existing sidewalk infrastructure constructed in Phase 1 (Timber Hill Drive to Danby Drive) and Phase 2 (Nolensville Pike to I-24), which will extend the pedestrian path from I-65 to I-24 on the south side of Harding Place when completed.
