Title: AR 102 in Rogers
Post by: M86 on January 17, 2014, 12:40:44 AM
Tonight, in the old part of Rogers, I turned onto Olrich Street from 8th Street/US 71B... and a random AR 102 shield was one of the first things I saw, with no directional signage.

I looked at it on streetview, and there is an overgrown tree/brush mess where this AR 102 shield is.

For reference:  http://goo.gl/maps/y8aZI

It had to have been a route for it, because this greets motorists on Olrich at 71B:

It was basically a state maintained road to the Tyson chicken plant. Started at 8th St (Bus 71) and reverted to city maintenance at the railroad crossing.

Arkansas has lots of those. 369 near Paris goes to the local charcoal plant. There's a section of 333 that's basically an "access road" to Arkansas Nuclear One near Russellville.
