Question Can anyone tell me about John Sevier Hwy

Hi, I might have to take a job further from Maryville than I want too, it would be on John Sevier Hwy to the west. Is this road a curvy, windy mountainous road ? or is it pretty much a flat straight thru interstate. I am curious about the traffic, back and forth and whether it is a long drive by mtn standards. Does anyone know? We all know it takes a little bit longer driving in the mtns.......!!! I got a feeling this is smack dab in the middle of the mtns but of course I don't know.

When I lived in rural East Knox County I'd take John Sevier Hwy to get to the airport and Maryville. Most of it is only 2 lanes, parts have a middle turn lane. But it's a nice road with very little traffic and very few curves. I think it has only 2-3 traffic lights. It also goes through some beautiful countryside. You wouldn't even think you're in a county with 400,000 people.

Occasionally during rush hour John Sevier Hwy becomes backed up where it merges with Alcoa Hwy (Hwy 129). Otherwise it's a very pleasant drive.
