U.S. 64 in Crittenden County to undergo pavement tests

Crews testing the pavement on U.S. 64 in Crittenden County will require lane closures next week, state highway officials said Friday.

The work, which is part of a proposed project to widen the highway, will extend from the Cross County line to Arkansas 147, the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department said. Crews will reduce traffic to a single lane through alternating closures of the eastbound and westbound lanes and shoulders, according to a statement.

The closures will run from Tuesday through next Friday, weather permitting, and drivers will be alerted with cones and flaggers, the department said.
