I-40 exit 387 Center of Knoxville |
This exit is quite confusing and busy as it is the center of Knoxville. Interstates 40 and 75 meet here, and Federal highway 441 crosses near here, and to add to the confusion highways 11 and 70 runs parallel to I-40 in this area also.
If you are travelling through Knoxville you would probably be better off to take the I-640 loop around town. It adds a few miles, but will probably be faster, especially during the day. -- NOTE; For highway travel south via Interstate Highway # 75 - See Milebymile.com Road Map Highway Travel Guide I#75- Kentucky/Tennessee State Line to Knoxville, Tennessee, for driving directions.
