Contractors working on the rehabilitation of Interstate 40 in North Little Rock will require nighttime road closures on MacArthur Drive/Hwy. 365 in the vicinity of the Levy interchange for concrete bridge deck pouring on the I-40 eastbound Levy bridge.  A detour route will be in place during the road closure period beginning at 10:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 20^th through 6:00 a.m. the following morning.  The eastbound outside lane on I-40 will also be closed between mile markers 151 and 152 during this time in relation to the bridge construction activity.  Work will be done as weather permits with possible inclement weather forcing the road closure schedule to be revised.  

Motorists are encouraged to consider alternate routes if possible and follow all roadway signage and speed limits.  Details of this and other planned lane closures of 4 hours or more may be found at the www.ArkansasHighways.com website.  After clicking on the “ROADS” button, a “ Daily Lane Closures” page lists continuous updates to current and upcoming lane closure locations and timeframes.  The AHTD Public Affairs Office is available via phone at 501-569-2227 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., to assist motorists with information.
