GATLINBURG, Tenn. — The Great Smoky Mountains National Park roads crew have implemented a temporary one-lane closure of the northbound Spur to clear a rockslide near the tunnel. The lane closure starts north of Westgate Resorts Road.

The rockslide started yesterday afternoon following a brief rain shower. Crews from Blalock are assisting NPS to clear the road and remove loose rocks from the cliff above the road.  The road should fully re-open by the end of today, July 17.
