Press Release Summary = New plan seeks to streamline visitor traffic to Gatlinburg
in the Smokies - http://www.gatlinburg-rentals.info

Press Release Body = Gatlinburg City Manager, Cindy Cameron Ogle has urged visitors
to Gatlinburg and the Smokies to try and avoid the direct routes to the area and
take the “roads less traveled” instead.

Highway traffic in the Smokies can be a lot to bear, especially along the primary
routes of Highways 66 and 441 leading into Sevierville and through Pigeon Forge.
However, visitors to the region can now avoid all that traffic on their way to
Gatlinburg.

“Take the less-traveled and scenic alternate routes to Gatlinburg and on the return
journey home...it\'s a little bit further, but can easily save over an hour in
traffic congestion,” she said.

It\'s a secret worth sharing, so Ogle along with the Gatlinburg City Commission have
come up with an alternate route map developed with driver relaxation in mind!

With tourism at the heart of Gatlinburg\'s success as a mountain resort community,
Ogle has often been a facilitator of programs that have boosted the local economy
such as the Smoky Mountain Lights program in Gatlinburg. She also played an
instrumental role in the recruitment of the Ripley\'s Aquarium of the Smokies, one of
the largest and most visited aquaria in the country.

Gatlinburg gears up for the expected boom in 2006 travel to the Smokey Mountains
