PULASKI & LONOKE COUNTIES (02-12) – Construction work to widen U.S. Highway 67 between Jacksonville and Cabot requires overnight lane closures in Pulaski and Lonoke counties, according to Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.
Weather permitting, the inside lane of northbound and southbound U.S. Highway 67 will periodically be closed during overnight hours between Vandenberg Boulevard and State Highway 5. Drivers may expect various inside lane closures for the next two weeks, beginning Wednesday, February 13. Lanes may be closed during the following time periods:
- Northbound lane closures may occur overnight between 8:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. the following day.
- Southbound lane closures may occur overnight between 7:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.
These closures will permit crews to work within the center median. Traffic will be controlled with construction barrels and signage.
This project (Job CA0605) is part of ARDOT's Connecting Arkansas Program and includes widening 4.6 miles of U.S. Highway 67 from Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville to State Highway 5 in Cabot. The highway is being widened to three lanes in each direction. More information on this $79.2 million project is available at ConnectingArkansasProgram.com.
Drivers should exercise caution when approaching and traveling through all highway work zones. Additional travel information can be found at IDriveArkansas.com or ARDOT.gov. You can also follow us on Twitter @myARDOT.
