Road Work Will Close Clingmans Dome Road in Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Mid-September

By Kurt Repanshek - September 3rd, 2010

There will be a one-week closure of the Clingmans Dome Road in Great Smoky Mountains National Park later this month so crews can finish paving and striping the road.

Park officials say the closure will run from September 13 until the morning of September 18, a Saturday.

That closure will allow crews to do final paving and striping on the large parking lot that serves visitors to the observation tower, and will re-grade the gravel shoulders to improve drainage and safety.

The work is a continuation of the reconstruction and repaving that was begun in February.
