Cookeville’s West Cemetery Road will be closed Friday and Saturday.
The 15th annual Soap Box Derby will be held at Prescott South Elementary and the road is closed for the event.
Cookeville City Manager Mike Davidson said the event usually takes place near Tennessee Tech, but construction on campus forced the derby to move this year.
The derby begins with car impound Thursday evening. The track is open for practice runs beginning at 4 p.m. Friday. The derby officially starts at 9 a.m. Saturday.
