Bentonville to hold public hearing for NE J Street project

BENTONVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — The city of Bentonville is holding a public hearing on the NE J Street project.

The project would create an interchange at Interstate 49, extending NE J Street northward from Tiger Boulevard across the interstate for about a mile.

Once finished, the city says this would result in a more direct route from the interstate to major attractions and the downtown district.

You can give your thoughts on the project on August 29 from 4-7 p.m. at the Bentonville Community Center.
