SALINE COUNTY | August 19, 2024

Construction to widen Interstate 30 (I-30) to six lanes in Saline County requires flagging operations on Highway 67/229 from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. nightly Monday, August 19 through Thursday Morning, August 22.

Weather permitting, crews will alternately close a single lane on Highway 67/229 between the I-30 east off-ramp and the I-30 west off-ramp (Exit 114) to perform pavement operations. The public is encouraged to find alternate routes as flagging operations may cause traffic delays.

Traffic will be controlled with message boards, flagging operations, construction barrels, 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 CA0601) is part of ARDOT’s Connecting Arkansas Program and includes widening 5.5 miles of Interstate 30 to three lanes in each direction, from the interchange with U.S. Highway 70 (Exit 111) to Sevier Street in Benton (Exit 116). The project also includes improvements at the Highway 67 interchange (Exit 114). More information on this $187.3 million project is available at ConnectingArkansasProgram.com.
