CARROLL COUNTY (10-16) – The State Highway 187 Bridge at Beaver has been closed for
inspection by structural engineers, according to Arkansas Department of Transportation
(ARDOT) officials.

The bridge has required temporary closures since early October due to scheduled routine
maintenance. ARDOT engineers decided to take a closer look at the bridge after receiving
results of a special bridge inspection. Until the review is complete, the bridge will remain
closed.

Traffic will be controlled with 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
