By routing I along the western leg of I rather than its existing route through town, travel distance can be reduced by 1. At the present time through traffic on I must traverse nine interchanges and one major directional interchange along its route through town. The proposed routing along I includes only two interchanges. With less merging and diverging traffic conditions, the routing along I would be desirable from a safety standpoint. With this change, elimination of overlapping major Interstate routes, I, I would result in the downtown Knoxville area.

This remained the case through , so time tables are subject to change. Moses Boulevard near Exit 52B U. The long term project separated into three phases:.
