PULASKI & LONOKE COUNTIES (05-09) – Construction on U.S. Highway 67 between
Jacksonville and Cabot requires northbound and southbound lane closures in Pulaski and
Lonoke counties, according to Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.

Weather permitting, northbound and southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 67 will be closed to
perform overhead sign work. In addition, the work will require all traffic in one direction to
be stopped for 15-minute intervals. These nighttime lane closures will occur overnight on
Monday, May 13.

• Southbound traffic will be reduced to one open lane between Coffelt Road and
  Vandenberg Boulevard from 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. The middle and outside lanes
  will be closed.
• Northbound traffic will be reduced to one open lane between Coffelt Road and State
  Highway 5 from 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. the following afternoon. The middle and
  outside lanes will be closed.

Traffic will be controlled with construction barrels and signage, with assistance from the
Arkansas State Police. Advance warning signs will be placed to notify traffic approaching the
closures. The public is advised to be cautious if traveling in this work zone and are
encouraged to find alternative routes to avoid the highway closure.

This project (Job CA0605) is part of ARDOT’s Connecting Arkansas Program and includes
widening 4.6 miles of U.S. Highway 67 from Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville to State
Highway 5 in Cabot. The highway is being widened to three lanes in each direction. More
information on this $79.2 million project is available at ConnectingArkansasProgram.com.

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
