Interstate 440 (abbreviated I-440) in Arkansas is a 10-mile-(16-km)-long partial loop connecting Interstate 40 with Interstate 30 and Interstate 530 near Little Rock. The route, known as the East Belt Freeway during planning and construction, travels through much of the area's industrial core in the eastern part of the metropolitan area and near Little Rock National Airport and the Port of Little Rock.

To avoid repeating the disturbance of the Fourche Creek floodplain by a causeway section of I-30 (including what is now the I-30/I-440/I-530 interchange), most of I-440 between I-30 and the exit leading to the airport is an extended bridge through the floodplain, crossing Fourche Creek several times.

I-440 is part of a planned full loop around the metropolitan area, together with Arkansas's Interstate 430. Part of that effort, an extended route from I-440's north end at Interstate 40 to US Highway 67, opened in 2003 as Highway 440 and is also known as part of the North Belt Freeway project.

Exit list

The entire route is in Pulaski County.
