Detour on the Lowell road from Madison to Nashville

A detailed guide describes the Lowell road detour from Madison road through Taylorsville to Nashville via shelter house 48, noting it is graveled and lightly used. It advises motorists to avoid routes through Trafalgar Morgan town Georgetown and Helmsburg and explains the Helmsburg to Nashville township road is under improvement with rough limestone surfaces.
