GREENE AND LAWRENCE COUNTIES (11-22) – Construction work to widen U.S. Highway
412 requires traffic shifts in Greene and Lawrence Counties, according to Arkansas
Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.

Weather permitting, eastbound and westbound traffic on U.S. Highway 412 will shift to the
north onto new pavement sections to detour around construction of drainage structures.
Two areas of Highway 412 will shift traffic, beginning Monday, November 25 at 9:00 a.m.
The traffic shift will be in place through summer 2020.

• Traffic shift beginning 1.5 miles west of Lawrence County Road 615 to 0.5 miles west
  of State Highway 231.
• Traffic shift 1.5 miles west of the town of Light

The traffic shift will be controlled by signing, pavement markings, and traffic barrels. The
public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone, and shoulder width will be
reduced within the traffic shift zones.

This project (Job CA1003) is part of ARDOT’s Connecting Arkansas Program to widen
approximately 14.5 miles of U.S. Highway 412 to four lanes between U.S. Highway 67 in
Lawrence County and State Highway 141 in Greene County. The project includes a southern
bypass of the Light community. More information on this 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
