State Route 157 Closed Near State Line Beginning Monday

WHAT: State Route 157 will be closed near the Georgia/Tennessee state line on Lookout Mountain beginning on Monday so crews can stabilize the slope near the route and repair a section of the road. The repairs are expected to take about 30 days, weather permitting. A detour will be in place while the repairs are underway.

WHERE: SR 157 will be closed about half a mile from the state line

DETOUR: Motorists traveling north will take SR 157 to SR 136 and head east to SR 193, which they will then take into Tennessee. Southbound traffic from Tennessee will take SR 193 into Georgia then turn west onto SR 136 before taking SR 157
