DESHA COUNTY | December 14, 2022

Join fellow stakeholders in southeast Arkansas next week for a ceremonial groundbreaking on the next phase of construction for the Interstate 69 Corridor. Members of the Arkansas Highway Commission, ARDOT staff and local leadership will gather at ARDOT’s Desha County Area Maintenance Headquarters in McGehee next week Tuesday, December 20, at 11 a.m.

Designated by the United States Department of Transportation as a Corridor of the Future, this federally recognized highway will be invaluable to future freight movement across the United States.

When complete, Interstate 69 will span over 2,600 miles from Laredo, Texas to Port Huron, Michigan.
