HOT SPRING COUNTY (8-25) – Maintenance to the underside of an overpass that crosses Interstate 30 near Rockport requires a temporary lane closure, according to Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) officials.

Weather permitting, crews will close the outside westbound lane of I-30 between mile marker 96 and Exit 98 from 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 27. This closure will allow crews to repair the underside of the Highway 270 overpass.

Traffic will be controlled by traffic cones and signage. Drivers should exercise caution when approaching and traveling through all highway work zones. Additional travel information can be found at IDriveArkansas.com or ARDOT.gov. You can also follow us on Twitter @myARDOT.
