No, it isn't just Arkansas, but this past year the construction on I-40 alone has consistently caused up to 2-hour delays in the areas where it is intensive. In the Conway area, it has gotten so bad that you can't even go around it by another route because so many people are trying to. Wrecks abound and the ones involving fatalities or flight for life rescues shut down the highway completely for hours. With all the traveling I have to do with my job, it is a real nightmare. On all points northwest of here, it is impossible to avoid the Conway area. When some mornings I have to get up at 2 am to get on the road in time to get to work, the last thing I am able to cope with on the return trip (especially if I am going to have a repeat the next day) is 1-2 hour delays. It isn't bad in the pre-dawn hours, but the rest of the time, it is horrible.
