Highway 334 (AR 334, Ark. 334, and Hwy. 334) is a designation for two state highways in the Arkansas Delta. One segment begins at Highway 1 Business (AR 1B) in Forrest City and runs southeast to Tuni. A second route begins at US Highway 79 (US 79) at Bledsoe and runs east. Both routes were created in the mid-1960s, and have remained along the same alignment since. Both routes are maintained by the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ArDOT).
Route description
= Forrest City to Tuni
=Highway 334 begins at Highway 1B (Washington Street) in Forrest City, a city of regional importance in the Arkansas Delta region. The highway winds southeast toward the Lee County line through Crowley's Ridge. The loess hill terrain makes the route wind and curve more than the surrounding highways in St. Francis County covering the Mississippi Alluvial Plain. Highway 334 intersects St. Francis County Road 735 (CR 735) at Tuni, with CR 734 and CR 736 continuing west and east, respectively.
As of 2016, the route had an annual average daily traffic (AADT) of 1,500 vehicles per day (VPD) within Forrest City, but 270 VPD east of the city, earning a classification as a very low volume local road by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), meaning fewer than 400 vehicles per day.
= Bledsoe to Frenchman Bayou
=Highway 334 begins at US 79 on the St. Francis-Lee County line in the Arkansas Delta. The route runs southeast across Millseed Lake. It turns south along a section line road to Lee County Road 621 (CR 621), where it terminates near a levee. The eastern terminus is less than one mile (1.6 km) from the Mississippi River and the Mississippi state line.
Near the eastern terminus, the AADT was measured as 120 VPD in 2016, dropping to 70 further east.
