John Schroer, commissioner of the
Tennessee Department of Transportation, announced that a portion of
State Route 840 will open exclusively to bicyclists Oct. 13, for “Eight
Forty Fondo Festival.” Fondo is Italian for “ride.” The ride will be
part of the opening ceremonies for the final 12 miles of SR 840 that
remain unopened. The unopened stretch traverses southern Williamson
County. It is scheduled to open to motor vehicles Nov. 2, according to
Schroer, who served as mayor of Franklin from 2007 to 2011.
“We're going to have an 'Eight Forty Fondo' on the new section of 840,” Schroer said. “The governor [Bill Halsam] is going to participate, and we want you to come and ride with the governor. [The surface] will be smooth and perfect.”
