The City of Brentwood is working in conjunction with the City of Franklin on this intersection project that impacts both municipalities. This project is a proposed extension of McEwen Drive in Franklin from Wilson Pike to the Taramore subdivision. Brentwood will later extend the road through the Taramore subdivision, funded in part by a developer contribution.
Engineering work began in Fiscal year 2021. Once design is complete, initial construction activity will focus on the area of the gas transmission lines which will need to be adjusted. The timing of this work is subject to approval by Columbia Gulf.
The extension of McEwen Drive has been identified as a priority in the Brentwood 2030 Plan. Completion of this roadway section in the future would provide a direct link from the new I-65 interchange to the Taramore subdivision. When this section is built, it opens the possibility of further extension to Pleasant Hill Road, Clovercroft Road, and eventually Nolensville, Smyrna and I-24 providing an alternative east/west route for traffic from Nolensville & Smyrna to reach the Cool Springs area. Such an extension would help relieve traffic flow on Brentwood streets such as Concord Road, Crockett Road, Moores Lane, Split Log Road, etc.
