WASHINGTON COUNTY | September 30, 2024

Portions of Interstate 49 (I-49) will be closed overnight for 15-minute increments beginning on Monday, September 30.  The closures will occur each night from 10 p.m. until 5 a.m. the next morning.  The overnight closures are expected to be completed by Saturday morning, October 19.

The closures are scheduled between Highway 412/W. Sunset Avenue (Exit 72) and Elm Springs Road (Exit 73) in Springdale.

Weather permitting, these temporary traffic stops will allow crews to set steel girders for the new Har-Ber Avenue overpass bridge.
