Over 40,000 cars travel each day along Hillsboro Pike, one of the busiest thoroughfares in Nashville, Tenn. Originally designed without a left-turn lane, the Pike would see traffic sometimes backup for nearly a full mile on busy days. To expand the roadway, banks on the east side of Hillsboro Pike required extensive segmental retaining walls that would allow the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) to save existing landscaping and utilities while minimizing lane closures. In addition, they needed a retaining wall solution that could be built directly in front of an existing stacked stone wall that TDOT did not want to dismantle.
