The Tomato Art Festival in East Nashville is taking steps to enhance safety for its 23rd year. Organizers have decided to expand road closures and add physical barriers. This decision comes after a recent deadly crash on Lower Broadway.

The festival, which runs on Friday and Saturday around Five Points, is expected to draw thousands of people. Residents and organizers want to ensure that families can move around freely without the presence of vehicle traffic. A map of the road closures is available from the event organizers.

Further details about the festival and safety measures are available from the organizers. The event has grown in popularity, drawing crowds from across Nashville, and organizers are working to ensure a safe experience for all attendees.
