Creation: Appeared in 1953 or 1954 running from US 31 Berry Hill to US 41-70S southeast of Nashville.
Adjustments: In 1983, TN 155 was added to all the completed parts of Briley Pkwy, some of which date to the late 1960s. TN 155 became 2 pieces: the original TN 155 was extended north and then west to end at US 31W-41 in northern Nashville, and a separate segment from US 70S in Belle Meade north to Centennial Blvd.
By 1986, a 3rd segment was created when Briley Pkwy was finished as new freeway between I-24 and Brick Church Pike in northern Nashville.

Posting: Posted as secondary routing from US 70S to US 70 west of Nashville and from US 31 to I-24 south of Nashville; posted as primary routing everywhere else
TN 155 is posted E-W from US 31 to US 41/70S; N-S from US 41/70S to MM 13.0; W-E from MM 13.2 to TN 12; S-N from TN 12 to US 70S.
Secret US Route Overlay: None
Comment: Forms a nearly 90% beltway around Nashville. The two endpoints are connected by a single 4.4 mile road, Woodmont Blvd. Some on-line maps show TN 155 on the missing segment but it is not in the Tennessee State Highway system.
85% of TN 155 is full freeway, parts of which have been widened to 8 lanes.
TN 155 is blown off by I-65 in Berry Hill with no simple path to get there by a different interchange.
TN 155 serves Nashville international Airport and the Grand Ole Opry complex.
TN 155 between I-40 and US 31E has traffic counts of 100,000 AADT, so it is a very busy roadway.
