Tennessee State Route 374

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

State Route 374 is an east-west state highway in Montgomery County, Tennessee that acts as a cross-town freeway for travelers in Clarksville, Tennessee. It starts at one end in south-east Clarksville (Sango) at U.S. Highway 41-A, and heads northwest becoming:

1. Richview Road, which past Memorial Drive changes into
2. Warfield Boulevard to the intersection of Wilma Rudolph Boulevard (U.S. Highway 79), changing to the
3. 101st Airborne Division Parkway, to Fort Campbell Boulevard/ US 41-A, to the west becoming
4. Purple Heart Highway to its current end at Dover Road (U.S. 79).

Warfield Boulevard and the 101st Parkway are both two-lane sections and the Purple Heart Parkway is the newest segment and is a four-lane road.

Warfield Boulevard is named for an esteemed family of Clarksville that owned the land before it was constructed there.

Construction is ongoing along the 101st Parkway segment of SR 374, with a strict 45 mph speed limit due to workers being present. The construction project is to widen that part of the highway to four lanes and to create an overpass with exits that will let traffic freely flow over Wilma Rudolph Boulevard. Additional plans call for expansion of Warfield Boulevard sometime in the future.
