Overnight Ramp Closure Scheduled for the Interstate 30/Highway 70 Interchange in Saline County
SALINE COUNTY | July 23, 2024
NR #24-240
Construction to widen Interstate 30 (I-30) to six lanes in Saline County requires the closure of the Highway 70 ramp to I-30 west from 10 p.m. Wednesday, July 24 through 6 a.m. Thursday, July 25.
Weather permitting, crews will close the ramp to move barrier wall. Traffic will not be able to use the ramp during the closure and will need to follow the signed detours. See attached detour map NR 24-240-A for more information.
- Highway 70 to I-30 west detour: Traffic will take the on-ramp to I-30 east, take Exit 114 (Highway 67/229), and return to I-30 west.
Traffic will be controlled with message boards, 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.
