Construction on Interstate 49 in Bentonville and Rogers will require additional overnight lane closures beginning today, the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department said.
Crews removing a barrier wall along the inside lanes of northbound and southbound I-49 will require the inside lanes to be closed between Southeast Walton Boulevard and Central Avenue/Arkansas 72 from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. each day through June 23, weather permitting.
Traffic will be controlled using signs and traffic barrels, the department said.
The work is part of a $27.7 million project to widen 3.5 miles of I-49 to six lanes from four between U.S. 62/Arkansas 102 and Arkansas 72.
The project is expected to be complete in late 2017, the department said.
