Road Over Bull Shoals Dam Closed This Week

Bull Shoals Dam has another temporary closure scheduled for the coming week.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will close Arkansas Highway 178 across the dam from 6:30 Monday morning through 5 Wednesday evening.Officials will deploy and remove equipment used to perform maintenance on the dam at this time.
Corps officials state they regret any inconvenience this may cause. The closure has been coordinated with local emergency and law-enforcement agencies.

It is suggested to plan an alternate route through the area during the road closure. Travel to locations on Highway 178 past the Bull Shoals Dam closure will require a detour using Highway 178 and Arkansas Highway 5 to Arkansas Highway 126 through Midway and Gassville; U.S. Highway 62/412 through Flippin; and Highway 178 through Bull Shoals.
