Arkansas Interstate Highways Are Only As Modern As What We Invest In Them
In 1999, Arkansans voted for the Arkansas Highway Commission to issue bonds investing in smoother, safer Interstates. The result was the 1999 Interstate Rehabilitation Program, which modernized over 350 miles of Interstates. That's the good news. The other news is that the 1999 program has come to an end and today Arkansas has over 650 miles of Interstate highways. So, more must be done to finish the job.
This map shows over 350 miles of Interstates that have been modernized (green). It also shows the Interstate miles still needing work (red).
