The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) will be making improvements to the entrances to the very busy Hamilton Place district which features one of the busier shopping districts in Tennessee. According to the Chattanooga Times Free Press (not free!) it will cost around $50 million.  Per the CTFP;

A new reconstruction project at the Hamilton Place Boulevard interchange could be ready to go out to bidders by summer, according to the Tennessee Department of Transportation.

...

The project scope also includes three bridges, at least nine retaining walls, intelligent transportation system capability, lighting and one noise wall at the north end of the project along I-75 southbound to shield an apartment complex and nearby neighborhoods from traffic noise, according to TDOT documents.

That interchange is a mess!  I hope those light-colored rectangles are flyovers, but the real problem is on Shallowford.  That's a flustercuck!  BTW: that area of Chattanooga is quickly urbanizing.

Yes, those rectangles apparently represent flyovers. This project will eliminate one interchange along that section of I-75 and much of the associated merging-diverging delay and safety issues.

The title references a "urban" development in Ooltewah called Cambridge Square, which is well-done for a suburban development. Town square surrounded by retail and residential.
