North Little Rock street to close for work on bridge

Construction work on the U.S. 70 Broadway bridge and its approaches will require crews to close a section of Arkansas 100 in North Little Rock until Monday morning.

The Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department will shut down Arkansas 100 (Riverfront Drive) in both directions between Karrott Street and Willow Street in North Little Rock. The road will reopen by 5 a.m. Monday.

Motorists traveling along Riverfront Drive can use both Karrott and Willow Streets to access West Broadway to get around the closed section of highway. Alternate routes for the Broadway bridge replacement project are available at www.idrivearkansas.com.

The Highway Department said the public should keep a safe distance from the construction area while viewing progress and taking photographs because large trucks hauling debris as well as heavy demolition equipment will be moving through the downtown area over the weekend.
