One lane of US 441 (Newfound Gap Road) thru the Great Smoky Mountains NP will probably close intermittently for the next few months. They're going to be working on permanent repairs to the slide area from a year ago. The road will remain open, but there may be occasional traffic delays.

This is the direct route thru the park between Gatlinburg and Cherokee. It closes sometimes during the winter anyway, due to snow and ice.
