Work on an $87.4 million project to widen a section of Interstate 630 in west Little Rock will require restricting traffic on South Rodney Parham Road running below the interstate for five nights beginning Sunday, the Arkansas Department of Transportation said.
Lanes on South Rodney Parham Road will be closed from Freeway Drive to Mississippi Avenue to allow construction crews to perform paving operations from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily through Friday, weather permitting. One lane of traffic will remain open in both directions.
Flagging operations will be used to direct traffic around the work, the department said. Neighborhoods adjacent to the Interstate may experience nighttime and daytime noise during paving operations.
The work is part of a project to widen a 2.2-mile section of I-630 between South University Avenue and Interstate 430 to eight lanes from six. The project is estimated to be complete in early 2020.
