Temporary One Lane Closure Between Craggy Gardens and Mt. Mitchell

May 6, 2011 by Blue Ridge Parkway Guide

(Asheville, NC, Burnsville, NC) The Federal Highway Administration is completing investigative drilling along the Blue Ridge Parkway at Milepost 358 between Craggy Gardens and Mount Mitchell State Park. The drilling will require day and night one-lane traffic control by flagmen beginning on Monday, May 9 and lasting through Friday, May 18th.

Blue Ridge Parkway management apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause our visitors but asks that travelers be aware of signs and flagmen in the area.

The Blue Ridge Parkway Guide is a privately owned website authored by Joe Veler and Sarah Cooke, who began work on the site after discovering their shared love of the Parkway. It is a part of the Virtual Blue Ridge Network, which aims to share the Parkway experience with long-distance viewers and to enhance it for visitors and residents.
