During the June 16, 2025, meeting of the Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) in Spring Hill, Tennessee, members discussed critical improvements to traffic flow at the Buckner Road intersection. The committee focused on addressing the significant traffic congestion experienced during peak hours, particularly on Buckner Road, where long queues have become a common sight.

Vice Mayor expressed concerns about the current capacity of the intersection, suggesting that modifications, such as adding an extra stacking lane for right turns onto Breckner Lane, could alleviate some of the traffic issues. However, committee members acknowledged the limitations posed by existing infrastructure, including the need for extensive construction plans due to the presence of a storm pipe and steep slopes in the area.

The committee is working towards a striping plan set for September, which aims to improve traffic flow by synchronizing new traffic signals along Buckner Lane. This synchronization is expected to enhance communication between signals, ultimately helping to manage the flow of vehicles more effectively.

To move forward with these improvements, TAC members voted unanimously to recommend a positive motion to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) for the proposed changes. This recommendation will allow the city to collaborate with engineers to incorporate the necessary adjustments into the construction plans for Buckner Lane.

The outcome of this meeting highlights the city's commitment to enhancing transportation infrastructure and addressing the growing traffic concerns of residents, ensuring that future developments align with community needs.
