Tennessee State Route 191

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

State Route 191 (SR 191) is a secondary state highway in Benton County, Tennessee. It runs from Interstate 40 (Exit 133) north to Nathan Bedford Forest State Park just north of Eva, Tennessee. This highway crosses US 70, Business US 70, and State Route 69A. The section of road from I-40 to US 70 is also known as Birdsong Road. This highway passes through the small communities of Chalk Level, Tennessee, Eva, Tennessee, and Camden, Tennessee.

Near the northern terminus this road features unstripped shoulders, narrow roadway width, hairpin curves, and degraded pavement. All sections of SR 191 are quite curvy, with speed limits at the southern sections dropping from 55 MPH to 45 MPH. North of Camden, Tennessee, the posted speed limit is 50 MPH and drops off from 40 MPH at Eva, Tennessee to as low as 20 MPH inside the state park. Total length of highway is 24.02 miles.
