In an effort to keep residents informed during the much-anticipated renovations of the iconic Walnut Street Bridge, the City of Chattanooga has officially launched a new mobile app. The app, available now for Apple users with Android support coming soon, provides real-time updates on detour routes, construction progress, and exciting details about temporary art installations along the bridge.

The Walnut Street Bridge, renowned for its stunning views and vibrant community activities, is set to undergo significant upgrades aimed at enhancing its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. With construction expected to cause some disruption, city officials are committed to minimizing inconvenience for pedestrians and cyclists by improving communication through this innovative app.

Users of the app will benefit from real-time notifications about any closures and detours, ensuring smoother navigation around the construction zone.

The Walnut Street Bridge renovations are also set to highlight the city’s commitment to the arts. Users can explore details about temporary art installations that will be displayed throughout the construction period, celebrating the creative spirit of Chattanooga.

For those who prefer not to download the app, alerts can also be accessed via text message. Residents can simply text “WSB” to 423-249-9181 to receive updates straight to their phones.

Chattanooga city officials encourage everyone to download the app and stay connected during this transformative period for one of the city’s most beloved landmarks.
