Big Rock Interchange
Big Rock Interchange is the I-430/ I-630/Chenal Parkway interchange in west Little Rock, Arkansas. The name is derived from a large rock formation discovered during expansion. The interchange was originally constructed in 1977, then in the mid-2000s it was decided to expand the interchange to alleviate congestion. In 2011 an outcropping of Pennsylvanian Jackfork Formation sandstone and surrounding shale was discovered in the southeast quadrant of the project. The formation was estimated to weigh about 5 million pounds. Due to the size and hardness of the sandstone it was decided to leave the unique and distinctive formation in place as a landmark, rather than use explosives or some other method to try to remove it, and it was dubbed "The Big Rock". When the original I-430 and I-630 interchange was constructed, about 14,000 vehicles a day traveled down each Interstate, and I-630 ended at Shakleford Road with a traffic signal. With expansion and growth in west Little Rock, and part ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
