State Route 93 (SR 93) is a 38.6-mile-long (62.1 km) state highway in the eastern part of the U.S. state of Tennessee. It begins at US-11E/US-321 in Greeneville and ending at the Tennessee–Virginia state line in Bloomingdale, Tennessee.[2]

Route description

SR-93 begins at an intersection with US-11E/US-321 in Greeneville. It then heads northeast toward Kingsport. The route intersects SR-81 just south of Fall Branch and heads more northerly. In Fall Branch, it has an interchange with Interstate 81 (I-81) exit 50 and continues north to Kingsport where it intersects SR-347 just south of there. In Kingsport, it has an interchange with I-26 and SR-126 for the first time. This also marks the western terminus of SR-126. The route heads east as a southern bypass of the city passing by Eastman Chemical Company and crossing over the South Fork Holston River and has an interchange with SR-36. Then, it intersects SR-126 for a second time at an interchange. SR-93 then turns back north to an interchange with US-11W and then it meets its northern terminus, at the Tennessee–Virginia State Line in Bloomingdale.[1]

All of SR-93, from just north of I-81 to US-11W, is included as part of the National Highway System, a system of roadways important to the nation's economy, defense, and mobility.[3]
