State Route 1 (SR-1), known as the Memphis to Bristol Highway, is a mostly-unsigned state highway in the U.S. state of Tennessee that is 538 miles (866 km) long. It stretches all the way from Memphis in the southwest corner of the state to Bristol in the northeast corner. Most of the route is overlaid on U.S. Highway 70 and U.S. Highway 11W.
SR-1 begins at Interstate 55 on the Tennessee end of the Memphis-Arkansas Bridge. U.S. Highway 61, U.S. Highway 64, U.S. Highway 70 and U.S. Highway 79 come off the bridge alongside SR-1; US-61 soon turns south with State Route 14. The other three U.S. Highways split east onto State Route 3, and U.S. Highway 51 joins, only to split with State Route 4 where SR-1 turns east alone onto North Parkway. However, US-64, US-70 and US-79 soon rejoin SR-1 at State Route 57. All of SR-1 through Memphis, except for the section on its own, is a primary route.
After leaving Memphis, SR-1 runs along the following routes:
- U.S. Highway 64, Memphis to State Route 15 in Bartlett
- U.S. Highway 79, Memphis to State Route 76 in Brownsville
- U.S. Highway 70, Memphis to State Route 22 Bypass in Huntingdon
