These projects contribute to the four-lane widening of Highway 64 between Wynne and Marion. The additional lanes enhance the transportation connection between the cities, increase capacity, and improve traveler safety.

Job CA0101 County Road 375 to Highway 147 has been completed as Phase 1. Job CA0103, Cross County Line to County Road 375, has been renumbered as Job 110803 and remains a high priority for the Arkansas Department of Transportation. It will be constructed in Phase 2 with state and/or federal highway funds.
