Route description
editAR 346 begins near Amity Landing Recreation Area, a United States Army Corps of Engineers site on the Caddo River. The route runs north through the Piney Woods forest to AR 84, where it terminates.
History
editAR 346 was created by the Arkansas State Highway Commission on November 23, 1966 along a county road from AR 8 to the Caddo River.[1] In 1973, the Arkansas General Assembly passed Act 9 of 1973. The act directed county judges and legislators to designate up to 12 miles (19 km) of county roads as state highways in each county.[3] One of the extensions in Clark County extended AR 346 across the Caddo River to AR 84.[4] In 1992, the Highway Commission granted the Clark County judge's request to transfer jurisdiction of the segment between AR 8 and the Caddo River in exchange for creation of AR 26 Spur (AR 26S) in Gum Springs.[5]
Major intersections
editThe entire route is in Clark County.
