Arkansas Code 27-67-304 prohibits political campaign signs and other private signage within state highway rights-of-way. The Arkansas Department of Transportation removes violating signs along interstates, U.S. highways, and state highways statewide.
Under Ark. Code 27-67-304, no signs other than official traffic, directional, or regulatory signs may be placed within the right-of-way of a state-maintained highway. ARDOT enforces this prohibition by removing campaign yard signs, billboards, and other unauthorized installations from interstate, U.S., and state highway corridors. Right-of-way typically extends well beyond the pavement edge and often to the property line abutting the road. The statute applies uniformly across Arkansas; municipal sign codes generally govern only city streets and private property, not state highway frontage. Owners may retrieve removed signs from the local ARDOT Area Maintenance Office during business hours.
Signs in state right-of-way are removed without notice; repeat offenders may face encroachment penalties under ARDOT regulations.
