Construction to widen Interstate 30 (I-30) to six lanes in Saline County requires multiple overnight lane closures, according to the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT).
WHERE
on I-30 eastbound from 9 p.m. to
5 a.m.
WHEN
Nightly from Friday night, March 14 through Saturday morning, March 22, EXCEPT lanes will not be closed on Saturday night, March 15.
Weather permitting, crews will be working in the eastbound lanes between Highway 70 (Exit 111) and Sevier Street in Benton (Exit 116), resulting in periodic overnight lane closures. At times traffic may be reduced to one lane.
Traffic will be controlled with construction barrels, barricades, 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.
