A $79.2 million project to widen U.S. 67/167 from Jacksonville to Cabot will require a series of lane closings and modifications to two on-ramps beginning Monday and lasting throughout the week, the Arkansas Department of Transportation said.
Lanes on U.S. 67/167 and the northbound frontage road will be closed at various times, weather permitting. Traffic will be controlled with flaggers, signs and message boards.
The northbound and southbound lanes of T.P. White Drive will be alternately closed between Vandenberg and Northeastern boulevards intermittently between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Traffic will be reduced to one lane to allow crews to lay down asphalt and re-stripe the on-ramp to U.S. 67/167 near Vandenberg Boulevard. After re-striping, traffic will continue to use the on-ramp, but a designated left-turn bay will be removed, the department said.
The northbound and southbound lanes of T.P. White Drive and Second Street will be alternately closed between Coffelt Road and Arkansas 5 intermittently between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to allow crews to detour traffic onto new pavement at the Pulaski-Lonoke county line.
The right lane of southbound U.S. 67/167 will be closed at the Arkansas 5 on-ramp intermittently between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m. to allow crews to re-stripe the Arkansas 5 ramp. Traffic will be shifted onto the new alignment during this work, the department said.
