TRAFFIC ADVISORY: Rivergate Drive Repairs Scheduled for April 12-20

Posted 04-06-23.

Contractors working on behalf of the City of Sevierville will be performing reconstruction and repaving work on Rivergate Drive beginning April 12, 2023. The work will take place Mon-Fri between 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. Weather and other conditions permitting, the project should be completed by April 20.

Contractors will be utilizing a roadway reconstruction process called full depth reclamation (FDR). FDR involves removing and reclaiming the existing roadway section to create a more stable, durable and longer-lasting roadway. The process is also more eco-friendly and less expensive than traditional methods.

Traffic will be maintained, however short to moderate delays are likely and motorists should expect altered traffic patterns along with delays. Motorists are encouraged to choose an alternate route if possible and use extreme caution in work zones.
