Project Status Updates

A quick look at which CAP projects are scheduled, under construction, or completed.

Our commitment to the people is to begin, continue, or complete the widening of the identified highway corridors to four or more travel lanes using the $1.8 billion generated during the 10 years the temporary sales tax increase is in place.

A final 'Tip of the CAP' event will occur later in 2023 to commemorate and celebrate highway improvements in Central Arkansas made possible by the 1/2 cent sales tax revenue dedicated to road and bridge projects.
