The city has been plagued with delays on Rodney Parham. They are still waiting for the utility companies to complete their portion, which has caused significant issues for the contractor (Redstone). Redstone cannot begin road construction until the utility work is complete.  There were 3 initial stages of road work which they have not been able to maintain.  Many notice the haphazard approach to the work.  Redstone is performing what portions they can as utility work is complete in an area.

Redstone is currently working on the retaining wall near Happy Valley Drive and plans are being compiled for the traffic contractor for installation of temporary traffic signals at the Pleasant Valley Drive and Rodney Parham Road intersection. 

 

City staff is conducting monthly Utility Coordination Meeting and expects to be provided an update on utility relocation progress soon.

​

Utility work by Central Arkansas Water, Entergy, Little Rock Water Reclamation, CenterPoint Energy, Unite Private Network, AT&T, Verizon and the Pleasant Valley Country Club will be performed as the first step. Second, Redstone Construction, a local contractor, will begin street and sewer drainage construction. 

 

During the construction period, temporary traffic delays and short-term detours can be expected. The city asks for your patience and understanding.
