PULASKI COUNTY | August 9, 2024
Construction to widen Highway 67 to six lanes between Main Street and Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville requires a permanent traffic pattern change at the Gregory Street on-ramp to Highway 67 south beginning Monday, August 12.
Weather permitting, crews will open the new Gregory Street on-ramp to Highway 67 south. The new on-ramp will be north of Gregory Street near Parrish Street and may be accessed by traveling south on John Harden Drive. The temporary on-ramp that was opened south of N. James Street in July will be closed.
Traffic will be controlled with traffic drums and signage. The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone and watch for slower traffic speeds. Areas adjacent to the Interstate may experience noise impacts during nighttime hours.
This project (Job CA0604) is part of ARDOT’s Connecting Arkansas Program and includes widening 2.5 miles of Highway 67 to six lanes, between Main Street (Exit 9) and Vandenberg Boulevard (Exit 11) in Jacksonville. The project also includes improvements at the James Street interchange (Exit 10A), the Gregory Street Interchange (Exit 10B), the Vandenberg Boulevard interchange (Exit 11), and conversion of the Frontage roads from two-way to one-way.
