Look for a lane shift on Citizens Drive at Frontage Road in Benton

by

 

Construction crews working to widen Interstate 30 to six lanes in Saline County will modify the entrance to Citizens Drive at Frontage Road.

Weather permitting, crews will shift traffic to one side of the traffic island on Citizens Drive. This change in traffic pattern will take place between 9 p.m. Thursday, March 30, and 5 a.m. Friday, March 31.



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.
