Creation: Appeared in 1949 or 1950 running from TN 60 (now TN 311) Cleveland southeast to Georgia. This is the 3rd TN 74.
| Adjustments: In 1976, TN 74 was extended north replacing some of TN 60 to end at US 64 Cleveland. In 1983, TN 74 north was extended west with US 64 a bit, then replaced TN 2 north out to US 11.
Posting: Posted as secondary routing everywhere. The overlay with US 64 is not posted Secret US Route Overlay: US 11 Bus (3.2 mi) Comment: US 11 Business is very poorly posted in Cleveland...at TN 60 in N. Cleveland there are TN 74 shields only. This was the only place I saw TN 74 shields past the Inman/Wildwood intersection. | Previous TN 74's:

TN 74 #1: An original state highway which in 1924 ran from TN 24 (likely Burton Branch/Dry Valley intersection) Algood southeast to TN 1 (now US 70) Crossville.
In 1925 or 1926, TN 74 west was redefined as ending in Crossville, leaving behind Dry Valley Rd. In 1927 or 1928, TN 74 was renumbered as TN 42. Today this is US 70N except: E. Hudgens St out of Crossville (now cutoff by TN 111); the west half of Parker Rd north of I-40; some of I-40's footprint at Exit 300 and 1/4 mile west; a touch of Industrial Rd north of I-40; the 1929 Official suggests the route crossed the railroad multiple times but there doesn't seem to be any roads even on older topos that do this other than Junior Camp Rd west of Mayland...
TN 74 #2: Appeared in 1927 or 1928 as new routing, running from TN 39 (now US 411) Ocoee east through Ducktown to the North Carolina line near Isabella.
