CRAIGHEAD COUNTY (4-19) – Construction at the intersection of U.S. Highway 63B
(Nettleton Avenue) and Clark Street in Jonesboro requires temporary road closure,
according to Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.

Weather permitting, crews will close Nettleton Avenue and Clark Street beginning Monday,
April 22 at 8:00 a.m. to reconstruct the intersection. Detours will direct traffic around this
intersection by using alternate routes (see attached map). This closure is anticipated to be
complete by mid-May.

This project (Job 100824) is to constructing an overpass for State Highway 18 over the
Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway railroad crossing. The contract was awarded to
Capital Paving and Construction, LLC in October 2018 for the amount of $35,182,888.88. The
project is estimated to be complete early 2022.

Traffic will be controlled with signage and barricades. Drivers should exercise caution when
approaching and traveling through all highway work zones. Additional travel information
