CLEVELAND, Tenn. – Motorists on North Lee Highway, part of the state’s Highway 11 corridor, in Bradley County will have a smoother ride once a resurfacing project and new traffic signal installation are complete.

But in the meantime, they should expect delays.

Portable traffic signs have been warning drivers for a few weeks that roadwork will begin Sept. 2 on North Lee Highway between Paul Huff Parkway to just past Anatole Lane.

“Expect delays,” repeatedly flash the orange signs.

North Lee Elementary and Tennessee Christian Preparatory School are located within the project area, as are Bradley Commons and a number of strip plazas and neighborhoods.
