     BENTONVILLE, Ark. (AP) – State highway officials say construction work on Interstate 49 will cause overnight lane closures in Bentonville beginning next week.

     The Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department says the lane closures begin Tuesday night and will continue through the morning of Feb. 8.

     Officials with the agency say crews will begin placing a barrier wall along the inside lane of northbound Interstate 49 beginning Tuesday evening.

     The project is part of the agency’s Connecting Arkansas Program, which includes widening more than three miles of the interstate to three lanes in each direction.

     Work on the near-$28 million project is expected to be finished late this year.
