CONWAY â While the state s foot-dragging on the abandoned bypass corridor is threatening to kill the proposed MWV Rec Path along a 3-mile stretch of it that stretches from Walmart to Cranmore, the Sun has learned that due to the explosion in the number of visitors this past year, the state is revisiting a plan to build a road around Conway.
According to Don Lyford IV, the grandson of Don Lyford, who was the state Department of Transportationâs point man on the bypass from the 1980s through the 2000s, traffic increased dramatically during the pandemic, so much so that a bypass may now be needed.Â
