Improvements Underway for Three Overpasses on Interstate 40

POPE COUNTY | September 29, 2022

Drivers can expect lane closures beginning today, Thursday, September 29 through mid-October on Highway 363 in Pottsville and Highway 105 in Atkins.

Improvements to the Interstate 40 overpasses near Exits 88 (Pottsville) and 94 (Atkins) will result in lane closures on the crossover routes. Traffic on Highway 363 in Pottsville and Highway 105 in Atkins will reduce to one lane so the contractor can conduct hydro-demolition and surface replacement of the I-40 overpasses above the highways. This work should be complete by Thursday, October 13, weather permitting.

ARDOT reminds drivers to slow down and minimize distractions when moving through a work zone. Using a phone in a work zone is unlawful and can result in citations and doubled fines.
