Getting married in Gatlinburg during the second half of September? This is one traffic update worth knowing about.
The Spur, which connects Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, will have lane closures at different locations beginning Sept. 14 and continuing through Sept. 30.
Sept. 14–17, a southbound lane closure is scheduled from 7 a.m.–7 p.m.
Sept. 21–30, single-lane closures are scheduled in both directions near Huskey Grove Bridge from 7 a.m.–3:30 p.m. The northbound tunnel will also be affected. Work on Sept. 25 is scheduled to end at noon, with no weekend work during this period.
If your wedding plans have you traveling between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, I wouldn’t plan around a normal drive time. Give yourself some extra time for delays.
If you’re not sure whether this could affect your wedding plans, check with your planner or local vendors.
And if you still aren’t sure, feel free to contact me. I’m happy to look at where you’re staying, where you’re getting married, and when you’ll be traveling, and help you figure out whether you need to make any adjustments.
