Great Smokey Mountains NP just repaved the Cades Cove loop road that probably sees more traffic every year than some entire parks. I don't recall it ever getting more than patched before this in the last 20 years. There were areas where half the road had deteriorated to where it would be considered gravel sub-grade (potholes got bigger and deeper every year). They might have been able to continue patching it IF they could have stayed on top of it. Budget and unexpected higher priority emergency repairs probably prevented that.
