PULASKI COUNTY (8-31) –     Multiple lanes on Riverfront Drive will be closed through early November, requiring a temporary traffic shift, according to Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.

Weather permitting, crews will close the westbound lanes of Riverfront Drive between Pine and Olive Streets in North Little Rock, below the Interstate 30 bridge. A single-lane of westbound traffic will shift into the eastbound lanes, temporarily transitioning Riverfront Drive into a two-way traffic pattern. Traffic will be head-to-head beginning Tuesday, September 7 through early November. These operations are part of a maintenance of traffic plan to construct the new I-30 eastbound river bridge structure.
