Part of greenway trail closed indefinitely
A portion of the Waynesville Greenway is closed to the public starting from the end of Industrial Park Drive on the Asheville Highway side, extending all the way to the end at Lake Junaluska.
This closure is due to the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) working on the bridges along the Great Smoky Mountain Expressway. The greenway path goes under the bridges.
The closure is necessary to ensure the safety of greenway users during the construction period. The NCDOT anticipates that the bridge construction will take approximately two to three years to complete. As a result, the affected portion of the greenway will remain closed until the construction is finished.
The public can access and enjoy the greenway from the Waynesville Recreation Park side.
