Following months of restoration of damaged roads and trails in Franklin State Forest, the Forest will re-open three roads to motorized vehicles on Thursday, January 4, 2024.  Franklin State Forest, located in Marion and Franklin Counties in south-central Tennessee, was restricted to foot traffic only last year due to damage caused by off-road vehicles.  The Tennessee Department of Agriculture Division of Forestry has now completed rehabilitation of more than 23 miles in the Forest.
