Gatlinburg - Pigeon Forge Tennessee Rock Slide On Spur

A large rock slide has closed the southbound lanes of the Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Spur.  The rock slide is on the City of Pigeon Forge owned portion of the Spur.  At this time, officials with the City, national park, and TDOT are working through a traffic plan to allow  two way traffic on the northbound lanes of the Spur.   It will take some time to put in place the detour signage necessary to direct safe traffic.    Park officials are assisting with traffic and Pigeon Forge officials will be responsible for the slide clean up.  It is unclear at this time, how long it will take to remove the debris.

We will update you when the traffic plan is in place.  But right now, motorists are not able to access the Spur from the Pigeon Forge end

• Hillbilly Jokes & Others

  Hillbilly Awareness 1. Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store. 2. "Mom'n'em" is not one person. When someone asks, "How's your Mom'n'em?" They are referring to the whole family. 3. Remember, "You all" is singular, "All ya'll" is plural, and "All y'alls" is plural possessive. 4. Get used to hearing, "You ain't from arouncheer, are ya?" 5. If you hear "Hey, y'all, watch this," move out of the way there's something stupid about to happen. 6. Hillbilly's aint quite figured out turn signals so they are a novelty. 7. When you see a hillbilly driving 15 mph down the middle of the road, remember that most folks learn to drive on a tractor and the rest learned to drive while hunting from the road. 8. Do not be surprised to find that 10 year olds own their own shotguns and are proficient marksmen. Or that their Mammas taught them how to aim. 9. Duct tape is not only part of every survival kit; it is the WHOLE kit. 10. If you hear a turkey gobble, get out of the way. "Hillbillies" view a turkey gobble like city folk to payoff bells at a slot machines only da hillbilly has a gun.
