[QUOTE="willobandb, post: 663417, member: 4488"] Folks, Here is the official detour from Asheville to Knoxville: [URL="https://www.citizen-times.com/assets/pdf/B01453201027.PDF"]Link from Asheville Citizen-Times[/URL] Note the alternative options for noncommercial traffic (not trucks) are noted as well If you are going to Knoxville and start at least as far East as Winston Salem, this alternative using (future) I-74, I-77, and I-81 adds only 12 minutes over I-40 for the Winston to Knoxville trip according to GoogleMaps: [URL="https://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=winston+salem,+nc&daddr=36.7694699,-81.80935+to:knoxville,+tn&hl=en&geocode=%3BFb0OMQIdOrAf-ym5Se_aOjxQiDFCohvBZ2gtig%3B&mra=ls&sll=35.64524,-78.786431&sspn=0.008283,0.015986&ie=UTF8&ll=36.097938,-82.150269&spn=2.10819,4.092407&z=8&via=1"]Link to GoogleMaps route[/URL] Of course that does not include the extra traffic from I-40 now on I-81 from Kingsport, TN to Knoxville. Glad I've already done a trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway and another to the Johnson City area earlier this month! Bob [/QUOTE]
