SALINE COUNTY (10-16) – Improvements to Highway 5 require overnight lane closures in
Bryant, according to Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.

Weather permitting, beginning Monday, October 19, crews will reduce nighttime traffic to
a single lane on Highway 5 from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. between Reynolds Road (Hwy 183)
and the Pulaski County line for two weeks.

This pavement preservation project was awarded to Redstone Construction Group, Inc., of

3.3 miles of roadway.

Traffic will be controlled by signage and traffic barrels. Drivers should exercise caution when
approaching and traveling through all highway work zones. Additional travel information can be found at IDriveArkansas.com or ARDOT.gov. You can also follow us on Twitter @myARDOT.
