Highway A-7, Gilmore to Turrell
Highway A-7, Gilmore to Turrell is an old alignment of U.S. Route 63 (US 63) in Crittenden County, Arkansas. Built c. 1922, it travels parallel to the tracks of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad between Gilmore and Turrell, a distance of about 2.2 miles (3.5 km). Uniquely for practices of the time, this section of concrete roadway consists of a continuous pour, instead of the more typical practice of pouring the roadway in sections. The roadway is 17 feet (5.2 m) wide, with no shoulders, and carries two lanes of traffic. The road section includes a c. 1922 bridge, also made with reinforced concrete. US 63 was realigned off this segment in 1952, which is now known as Front Street in Gilmore and Eureka Street in Turrell.
