I drove up AR 220 from Cedarville to Devils Den this afternoon. The pavement still ends at the Crawford-Washington County Line (been that way since Spring). The Washington County section is still little more than an unmarked gravel road, though some of the hills have been leveled out.
Crawford County is already showing signs where it has been patched and /or resurfaced. ARDOT wanted to pave this road so badly, but from my perspective, they seems to be wasting a lot of money if they can't finish what they've started and what they've finished is falling apart.

You can thank I-49 for that! Oh wait... That's not even complete! They're spending too much time and money up in Fayetteville widening I-49 up there than other areas this side of the state! :banghead:
Fayetteville is where the growth is. Plus it is simply catching up from decades of neglect in favor of empty land
