TDOT has issued a letter to TFA which is now available on the TFA web site at



TDOT asserts that any signs were inadvertently placed on the property when the intent was to remind employees that they are not allowed to have firearms on TDOT property.

Despite repeated requests, TDOT has, to date, refused and failed to produce the actual TDOT documents which directed that the signs be placed (someone had to design, specify and order them) and the documents which mandated their removal.

I am looking forward to seeing exactly how inadvertent the decision to infringe on permit holders really was.

Traveling back from MI, I stopped at the rest stop just inside the KY border on I-65. No signs anywhere in regard to handguns; at the main building or at the refreshment building.

The rest area on I-65 North bound side the @ Alabama line is still posted at the door. I seen it Tuesday.

Have you by chance emailed or contacted TDOT about it?

I called and left message with the man over the rest areas Tue, but no one has called back. I'm in Cedar Springs Ga now and I will be going thought there Tomorrow morning and I will check it out again to see if it has been removed Sat morning still posted

I-65 North @ the Alabama line has been removed 1/29/10
