NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — All lanes of Nolensville Pike have reopened after an overnight closure tied to a hazardous materials investigation at a Mapco convenience store.
The roadway was closed between I-440 and Vivelle Avenue after a report of potentially dangerous material found in a dumpster outside the Mapco at 2200 Nolensville Pike. Glenrose Avenue in the immediate area was also closed during the response.
Police are now asking for the public’s help identifying a man they believe placed hazardous materials inside the dumpster.
The Metro Nashville Police Department asked anyone who recognizes him to call 615-742-7463.
According to the Nashville Department of Transportation, all lanes of Nolensville Pike northbound and southbound beyond Vivelle Avenue reopened during overnight hours.

Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
