The Natchez Trace Parkway will close the Rocky Springs Site at noon, Tuesday, August 28, 2012. The closure is necessary to prepare for the heavy rains and winds forecasted for the storm “Isaac.” Travelers are also advised to avoid using the Parkway in southern Mississippi during the storm and in the aftermath, due to the possibilities of falling trees and other obstructions.
The duration of the closure is undetermined at this time, but the Parkway will work to reopen the area as soon as possible.
Current weather information is available through your local radio and television stations.
