Route description
The ArDOT maintains Highway 382 like all other parts of the state highway system. As a part of these responsibilities, the department tracks the volume of traffic using its roads in surveys using a metric called average annual daily traffic (AADT). ArDOT estimates the traffic level for a segment of roadway for any average day of the year in these surveys. As of 2023, AADT estimated a peak of 680 vehicles per day (VPD) near the midpoint, dropping to 190 VPD near the state park entrance.[3] No segment of Highway 382 has been listed as part of the National Highway System,[4] a network of roads important to the nation's economy, defense, and mobility.[5]
The highway begins at AR 5/AR 9/AR 14 just outside the city of Mountain View in the Ozark Mountains. The route runs west past a former alignment into the city limits and later into the limits of the Ozark Folk Center State Park, where it terminates.[6][7]
History
The highway designation was created by the Arkansas State Highway Commission on February 25, 1970 to provide access to the Ozark Folk Center.[1] Following straightening of a curve along AR 5/AR 9/AR 14, the eastern terminus was realigned slightly on October 18, 1978, creating a small former alignment, now named "Old Highway 382" under local maintenance.[8]
