Bentonville utility work to close lane

Utility work by Bentonville will require a temporary lane closure on U.S. 71B beginning on Monday and lasting through March 31, the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department said.

The closure of the southbound turn lane on U.S. 71B at West Central Avenue will eliminate the option of southbound traffic on U.S. 71B to turn left, or east, onto West Central Avenue. Northbound traffic won't be able to turn right onto Central, either, while the work is taking place, the department said.

Traffic will be controlled using advance warning signs and traffic drums. Traffic heading from U.S. 71B onto Central will have to use NW Second, SE Second and SW A streets, the department said.
