Improvements to Highway 32 Across Millwood Dam Will Require Temporary Lane Closures

LITTLE RIVER & HEMPSTEAD COUNTIES (7-24) – Pavement preservation work on
Highway 32 across Millwood Dam will require temporary lane closures, according to
Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.

Weather permitting, crews will reduce traffic on Highway 32 to one lane controlled by
portable traffic signals between the River Run West Recreation Area road and the River Run
East Outlet Channel road starting at 8:00 a.m. on Monday, July 27 and continuing until
work is complete
which is estimated to take eight weeks. This closure will allow crews to
patch, level and overlay Highway 32 as well as remove the current guardrail, extend the
shoulder, and install a new guardrail on the extended shoulder.

Traffic will be controlled by traffic cones, portable traffic signals, and signage. Drivers should
exercise caution when approaching and traveling through all highway work zones.
