Using their population-based shares from the $54.7 million bond issue Garland County voters authorized in a June 2016 special election, the county and city of Hot Springs each contributed $50,000 to the study. "This study took a little while to figure out what the recommended improvements should be," Tudor said. "We're also looking at widening Carpenter Dam. Once I OK it, we'll put it before the (Highway Commission) and the commission will adopt it as a guide for future projects." The draft 2023-26 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program included the interchange improvements, estimating a $100 million cost for the Albert Pike-Airport project and $100 million for the Higdon Ferry-Central project. The funding breakdown included $40 million from the 0.50% state sales tax voters authorized in perpetuity during the November 2020 election. _____________________________________________________________ Higdon Ferry Road and Central Avenue Intersection Improvements The complete request for letters of interest is available electronically.
