PULASKI COUNTY (04-20) – The placement of permanent pavement markings on Interstate
630 will require nighttime lane closures in Little Rock, according to Arkansas Department of
Transportation (ARDOT) officials.
Crews will alternate eastbound and westbound lane closures on I-630 between Baptist
Health Drive (Exit 7) and University Avenue (Exit 5) to allow for the work. Weather
permitting, this work will occur Tuesday night, April 21 through Thursday night, April
23, between 8:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.
The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone. Traffic will be
controlled using signage and barrels. Neighborhoods adjacent to the interstate may
experience noise impacts during nighttime hours. (will this be a noisy process?)
This project (Job CA0608) is part of ARDOT’s Connecting Arkansas Program, which is funded
through a 10-year, half-cent sales tax. Interstate 630 has been widened for 2.2 miles between
the Big Rock Interchange and University Avenue. The widening was substantially complete
in early April 2020. More information on this $87.4 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
