I am glad I don't live up there but about 2 months per year, everytime I come back I will wonder if it is done yet

PMSL ! Progress, at the edge of a steel blade pushed by a diesel powered bulldozer spewing noxious toxic fumes and scarring the earth, precipitated by the need to satisfy the ever increasing appetite of destructive and wasteful humans. Soon we will have even more space, to pack gasoline fume spewing automobiles manned by a single occupant, onto every square inch of nature paved over in the name of progress

OK I looked at the "2025" picture. Doesn't make any sense to me..looks like an unnessary CLOVER LEAF? How in God's name is 630 and Shackleford going to handle the projected traffic projected to use the projected intersection? Just wonderin'

protector20....people who have a lot of booklearning don't always have any common sense. Sometimes I think that is why they pursued(sp) so much booklearning ...trying to "get smart". I have been meaning to call the Highway Dept. for years and tell them that in any other state there would be a sign at the top of that hill going from the Cantrell exit down to the river telling truck drivers what the % of grade is and how long it is..OR at least a hill sign/curve and low gear. It is deceiving..ONLY IN ARKANSAS

Ridiculous...I hated it when they cut that big swath through the woods and over the river and this mess at Shackleford...is this really necessary...BIG ROCK was the area at the bottom of CANTRELL hill back in the day...doesn't have any meaning whatsoever on Shackleford. But then again CHENAL might be an upity way of referring to Shinall Mountain out Hwy 10...The town is not getting prettier, just bigger. God Bless

Whoever designed this intersection when it was first built has got to be the most narrowminded engineer I have ever seen.
