Your “Welcome to Tennessee” just got an upgrade!

Governor Bill Lee alongside the Tennessee Department of Transportation and tnvacation, unveiled the first installation of the state’s new

“Welcome to Tennessee” signage program, beginning with a dedicated photo-op sign at the I-26 Unicoi County Welcome Center in Erwin.

TDOT will begin installing new roadside gateway signs at 16 interstate entry points over the coming months.

These signs will replace the existing welcome signs, with installation occurring in phases as fabrication and site scheduling are completed.
