What this tracks
This dataset records the locations of entrance pipes installed along Tennessee’s interstates, state routes, and other major highways.
Why it matters to you
If you’re a contractor, utility company, or engineer working on projects near Tennessee highways, this data tells you exactly where entrance pipes are located before you start digging or construction. For property owners adjacent to state routes, knowing the diameter and precise location of these drainage features helps you understand how stormwater flows from the roadway and could affect your land. This information prevents costly accidents and helps you plan landscaping or development projects that won’t interfere with state highway infrastructure.
How to read this data
ROUTE — identifies the specific highway where the pipe is located, like “I0075” for Interstate 75. COUNTY_NAME — shows which Tennessee county contains the pipe, such as “Hamilton.” DIAMETER — measures the pipe size in inches, with sample values like 30 inches. LOC_DESC — indicates whether the pipe is on the “Right” or left side of the roadway when traveling in the direction of increasing mile markers.
Try it yourself
Search for your county name in the COUNTY_NAME field to see all entrance pipes along state highways in your area, then filter by the specific route number if you need information about pipes near a particular interstate or state route that runs through your property or business location.
