James Robertson Parkway Bridge to Close for Months as East Bank Work Continues
Photo: AI-generated imageA key downtown span will shut down for an extended stretch next year as part of the ongoing East Bank redevelopment — worth knowing if you're planning to drive near the river.
The James Robertson Parkway Bridge, a connector between downtown and the East Bank, is set to close for months starting early next year, with the surrounding project expected to wrap by late 2029.
Visitors relying on that route to reach Nissan Stadium, the East Bank's new developments, or North Nashville should plan alternate crossings once construction begins.
