What is traffic on Interstate 24 like?

I live in Atlanta, but I want to go up to Nashville to see a Sturgill Simpson concert. I’ve never made the trek before, so I’m somewhat unfamiliar with I-24. I don’t want to be late for the concert, as I’m leaving work early on Friday to get there—what’s traffic like on Interstate 24?

Sturgill Simpson just might be the savior of country music, so it’s nice to meet a fellow fan of the old-school vibe! If you’re leaving work early on Friday, **traffic on Interstate 24 shouldn’t give you any issues until you reach
Nashville
. Once you reach the
Tennessee
capital, congestion can happen, especially during a Friday rush hour.
Depending on when you go, the I-24 stretch in Chattanooga and just to the east can develop inclement weather with little notice. As you’re going through the Smokies, the grades get steeper, the speed limits drop to 55 mph, and you should watch out for slow-moving 18-wheelers.. If snow is in the forecast, tread lightly—the roads can get slick, even if the Tennessee Department of Transportation lays down salt.
If you want to get close enough to Sturgill for a picture, save some extra cash by shopping for insurance with the
