Clark County, Arkansas – Drivers traveling along Interstate 30 in Clark County should expect temporary lane closures Monday morning as crews conduct a routine inspection of the Caddo River Bridge.
The rolling closures are scheduled for September 21 from 8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m., weather permitting. The work will take place on the Interstate 30 bridge over the Caddo River as transportation crews inspect the structure.
The closures are expected to move as the inspection progresses rather than keeping one lane closed for the entire work period. Drivers passing through the area during the morning should be prepared for changing traffic conditions and possible slowdowns.
Traffic will be managed with message boards, signs and signals placed around the work area. Motorists are encouraged to pay attention to the posted information and use extra caution while approaching and traveling through the bridge section.

The inspection is part of routine bridge work and is expected to be completed during the scheduled morning window. The timing of the closures could change if weather conditions prevent crews from carrying out the inspection as planned.

Transportation officials also recommend that motorists remain alert around crews and follow any directions given through temporary traffic controls. Sudden lane changes or reduced speeds may be necessary as the rolling closures move along the bridge.
The Arkansas Department of Transportation advises motorists to check current road conditions before starting their trip. Updated information about traffic, construction and other roadway issues is available through IDriveArkansas.com.
