Future
AHTD is upgrading U.S 67 to a four-lane highway. northeast of Little Rock. As of 2013, it runs as an Interstate-standard freeway to Highway 226 between Cash and Swifton. Construction is underway to extend the freeway to the U.S. 63 Bypass in the Walnut Ridge–Hoxie area, connecting to a pre-existing short section of U.S. 67 freeway that ends at U.S. Route 412. Long-range plans had called for the freeway to be extended from U.S. Route 412 to the Missouri State line, but Missouri backed off its commitment to continue the freeway north of the state line. As a result, U.S 67 will only become an expressway north of Walnut Ridge.

“It is marvelous indeed to watch on television the rings of Saturn close; and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxy’s edge. But in the process, we have lost the human element; not to mention the high hope of those quaint days when flight would create “one world.” Instead of one world, we have “star wars,” and a future in which dumb dented human toys will drift mindlessly about the cosmos long after our small planet’s dead.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
