CELINA, Tenn. (Oct. 26, 2021) — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District announces Dale Hollow Dam Road is closing to all traffic across the dam 8 a.m. Monday Nov. 1, 2021 for scheduled maintenance.

The road closure allows maintainers to work on the unit head gates.  Due to the extensive nature of this work, there is no scheduled date for re-opening of the roadway, but officials estimate repairs to last about one month.

Pedestrians and bicycle traffic are also not allowed across the dam. The closure provides for the safety of employees while making room for the equipment utilized during the maintenance.

During the closure, barriers are being placed at the intersection of Walker Ridge Road and Will Terry Road near the south end of the dam, and another at the Dale Hollow Dam Road/cut through road intersection at the north end of the dam.

The public can call the Dale Hollow Dam Powerhouse Office at (931) 243-3135 for more information.
