Nashville Local Pulse: Bridge Work Ahead, Predators Home Game, and Spring Weather Updates
Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Friday, April 10th.
We're starting your day with some major traffic alerts that could affect your commute. The Tennessee Department of Transportation is implementing lane closures on Old Hickory Boulevard over Interstate 40 starting tonight at 8 PM. Crews will be working on bridge repairs through Monday, April 20th at 5 AM. During the first phase, traffic will be reduced to just one lane in each direction with shortened left-turn lanes in the Hermitage area. The second phase begins Monday, April 13th when crews shift to the east side of the bridge. If you use this route regularly, plan for extra travel time and remember to follow Tennessee's Move Over Law when passing through work zones.
On the international front, there are ongoing developments with the Iran ceasefire that President Trump called for nearly 48 hours ago. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi accused the U.S. of violating three clauses of the framework this week. The disagreement centers on whether the ceasefire includes ending the war in Lebanon, a claim that both Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump dispute. This remains a fluid situation worth monitoring as negotiations continue.
Locally, we're looking at some exciting events happening this weekend. The Nashville Predators are hosting their annual Fan Appreciation Week presented by Bridgestone running through April 16th. If you're a hockey fan, the Predators are taking on the Minnesota Wild at Bridgestone Arena. Over at the Grand Ole Opry, the Oak Ridge Boys, Bill Anderson, and Don McLain are performing tomorrow night. The Nashville Symphony is also featuring conductor Giancarlo Guerrero performing Petrouchka tonight at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
For our college sports fans, Vanderbilt is facing off against Oklahoma this evening at 6 PM at Hawkins Field, and Lipscomb takes on Central Arkansas at Dugan Field at the same time.
Spring weather continues to be a mixed bag here in Middle Tennessee. With storm season ramping up through June, we're reminding listeners that severe weather can occur with little warning. Make sure your vehicle's safety systems are functioning properly, especially if you drive through hail storms, which can knock important driver assistance features out of calibration without causing visible damage.
