PULASKI COUNTY | August 14, 2024

Construction to widen Highway 67 to six lanes between Main Street and Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville requires a two-night closure of the Highway 67 southbound exit ramp at James Street (Exit 10A) from 8 p.m. Thursday, August 15 to 5 a.m. Friday, August 16 and 8 p.m. Friday, August 16 to 5 a.m. Saturday, August 17.

Weather permitting, crews will close the Highway 67 southbound exit ramp at James Street (Exit 10A) to perform construction on the new main lanes. Highway 67 southbound traffic needing to exit at James Street will need to exit at Vandenberg Boulevard (Exit 11).

Traffic will be controlled with message boards and barricades. 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.
