KNOXVILLE, Tennessee — If you have visited downtown Knoxville in the past year or so, you might have been inconvenienced by construction on Jackson Avenue.
The construction is almost done.
With sidewalks on the west ramp back open, many local businesses say they're excited about the new access that the ramp will provide the area as it reopens.
Business owners say it's been tough fighting against the ramp's closure alongside a pandemic, but they are optimistic about the ramp's reopening.
