One lane of State Highway 178 across Bull Shoals Dam will close from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Wednesday, and one lane of State Highway 177 across Norfork Dam will close from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Thursday. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers advises the lane closures are necessary to conduct routine bridge inspections.

Traffic lights will be present to assist with the flow of traffic, but motorists should plan for additional travel time especially with school being in session.

Corps officials say they regret any inconvenience this may cause and ask for the public’s cooperation until the work is complete.

The closure is being coordinated with emergency services and law enforcement agencies.
