Big Rock FAQs

More FAQs at arkansashighways.com

Q. When do the lane shifts start and how long will it last?

A. Crews will be working 24 hours a day, weather permitting, beginning July 19 at 9am. This phase of construction is scheduled to last 20 days.

Q. What will the speed be in the construction zone?

A. Advisory speeds through the work zone will continue to be 40 and 45 mph.

Q. How much longer will the entire Big Rock Interchange be under construction?

A. Work on the Big Rock Interchange is expected to continue through 2014.

Q. Why do the lanes need to be moved so many times?

A. Two reasons: The cranes being used to hang the steel beams require more room to move and operate than equipment used in other phases of the project. Also, for safety reasons, the beams cannot be hung over an active travel lane. So as this construction phase progresses, lane shifts will be needed to allow beams to be hung in different areas of the work zone.
