Montvale Rd (SR-336) Widening
Montvale Road in another very narrow highway with lots of traffic. The drop-offs on the edges of the road are very severe in many sections and make it one of the most dangerous roads in the county. This road has become an artery for bike traffic to the foothills parkway, but riding a bike on this road and others (Sevierville Road, Mint Road, e.g.) is taking one's life in one's hands. Any improvement plan to widen any of these older roads should also consider adding bike lanes to make it much safer. More and more residents and visitors like to ride bikes in the county and the state should make an effort to make that activity as safe as possible. Not all bike riders want to use the Greenways in the cities.
