Officials say US 79 in south Arkansas is to
be widened in places so that the two-lane highway will have passing
lanes.
The highway is getting improvements because it is part of the
corridor for planned Interstate 69.
The state highway department says construction to improve US 79
could start early in 2005.
Officials say traffic has been increasing on the highway and the
improvements are needed.
