→Highway 249 (AR 249, Ark. 249, and Hwy. 249) is a north–south state highway in Prairie County, Arkansas. The highway begins in Hazen and runs north through the central part of the county. The route is maintained by the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ArDOT).
Route description
Highway 249 begins at US Highway 70 (US 70, South Front Street) in Hazen, a small city in the Grand Prairie ecoregion. The southern terminus is near the Railroad Prairie Natural Area, a former railroad right-of-way running through downtown Hazen that has been preserved by the Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission.[3] It runs due north as a section line road, briefly overlapping the Hazen city limits. North of Hazen, the road passes through a rural, agricultural and aquaculture area, with a bridge over Hurricane Creek and an overpass over Interstate 40 (I-40), though no access is provided. North of I-40, Highway 249 passes through Center Point and Tarnceville, two unincorporated communities, before an intersection with Highway 302.
