MARYVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A rockslide has closed a Smoky Mountains highway popular with motorcyclists at least through the weekend.

The Tennessee Department of Transportation says a slide onto U.S. 129 at the Tennessee-North Carolina state line has closed the highway in both directions. The incident was reported Friday at 7 a.m. EDT.

TDOT officials later said they hope to reopen the road by Monday evening.

The highway is nicknamed the Dragon because of its numerous tight curves.

 

Warm days are here and Dragon is closed. Just an FYI.
