My favourite road

At least we can do a run down and back to the closure and you will know if it's LEO free or not

How dare Mother Nature doing this to us!

Lee... it would be appreciated if you would keep on the NC DOT to make sure this does not affect any of OUR drives!

Thanks....

Its amazing what they have to deal with to keep our twisty roads in tip top shape. Currently the big aggevation is google maps wont let you route a coarse down 28 because its closed.

Was on a business trip yesterday and had to drop off a coworker at the Knoxville airport. Hit the home button on the GPS and the shortest way home was US441. So I did a little detour to include US129. Driving the Dragon in a Ford Escape while it was raining just wasn’t the same. On the positive side there was no traffic.
28 is still blocked.
