CAPPE (Citizens Against the Pellissippi Parkway Extension, Inc.) is a state chartered non-profit organization.

We formed CAPPE in 2002 in response to a proposal to build a new 4-lane interstate highway through some of Blount County’s remaining agricultural land and the lower Little River valley. CAPPE members include farmers, professionals, educators, lawyers, blue collar workers, realtors, builders, musicians, artists, homemakers, small business owners, retirees and college students.

We believe this highway is not needed, wastes state resources, and will have negative impacts on the area along the route and on the quality of life in Blount County as a whole. We raised money through events and donations and hired an environmental attorney who helped us file a federal lawsuit charging the state Department of Transportation with failing to complete the required Environmental Impact Statement.

TDOT is now working on the EIS and CAPPE is continuing to monitor the process and participate in all public input opportunities. We have also provided TDOT with sensible alternative solutions to our local transportation needs (which will be exacerbated, not solved, by the proposed new 4-lane highway).

Please join us as we continue our discussion of the future of mobility in the Knoxville region. We will review the feedback we received during the spring workshops and talk about how we want to get around the region in the future. This discussion will help us identify steps we can take as a region to achieve our common vision.
