Arkansas Highway Network
Arkansas sits at the crossroads of several major interstate corridors. Road safety is a significant focus for the Natural State; while Arkansas has seen a 12% decrease in traffic fatalities since 2021, the state still recorded 590 roadway fatalities in 2023, representing one of the higher fatality rates in the nation. I-40 spans the state east to west, connecting Memphis to Oklahoma City through Little Rock. I-30 runs from Little Rock southwest to Texarkana and on to Dallas. I-49 serves the rapidly growing Northwest Arkansas region, connecting Fort Smith through Fayetteville to the Missouri border. These three interstates carry the majority of through-state traffic and interstate commerce. In addition to highway monitoring, users can access live street feeds and intersection cameras along Markham Street in Little Rock and College Avenue in Fayetteville to check for road-level gridlock. These road-level views are especially useful for navigating around the University of Arkansas during Razorback home games.
Little Rock Metro
Little Rock is the state's largest metro area with approximately 750,000 residents. The city sits at the junction of I-40, I-30, and several inner-loop freeways that create a complex interchange network. Despite being a major transit hub, Little Rock maintains a relatively short average one-way commute of approximately 18.5 minutes, well below the national average. I-630 cuts east-west through downtown, connecting I-30 to I-430 on the western bypass. I-440 provides an eastern bypass connecting I-40 to I-30 near the airport. US-67/167 runs northeast from downtown toward Jacksonville and Cabot, carrying heavy commuter traffic.
The I-30/I-40 interchange in North Little Rock and the I-30/I-630 junction in downtown are the state's busiest bottleneck points, with morning rush congestion from 7:00-8:30 AM and evening congestion from 4:30-6:00 PM.
Little Rock rush hours: 7:00-8:30 AM and 4:30-6:00 PM weekdays. The I-30/I-40 interchange in North Little Rock is the state's most congested point. Friday afternoon traffic from 3:00-6:00 PM is notably heavier as weekend travelers join commuters.
Northwest Arkansas
Northwest Arkansas is the fastest-growing region in the state, driven by the corporate headquarters of Walmart (Bentonville), Tyson Foods (Springdale), and J.B. Hunt Transport (Lowell). The Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers metro area has grown to over 600,000 residents, and traffic infrastructure has struggled to keep pace.
I-49 is the spine of the corridor, running north-south through all four major cities. The highway handles commuter traffic, truck freight, and University of Arkansas game-day traffic. During Razorback football Saturdays, I-49 and US-71 near Fayetteville experience severe congestion hours before and after games.

VIEW ARKANSAS CAMERAS →Fort Smith
Fort Smith sits at the Arkansas-Oklahoma border where I-40 crosses the state line and I-49 begins its run south. The city serves as a regional hub for the Arkansas River Valley, with Garrison Avenue and Rogers Avenue carrying heavy commercial traffic. The I-40/I-49 interchange processes interstate through-traffic and local commuters heading to the NW Arkansas corridor.
Seasonal and Weather Patterns
Ice Storms
Arkansas is particularly vulnerable to ice storms, which can paralyze the entire state highway system. The state sits in a zone where warm Gulf moisture meets cold Arctic air, creating freezing rain events that coat roads, bridges, and power lines with ice. Bridge decks freeze first, making interstate overpasses especially dangerous. The I-40 corridor from Little Rock to Memphis and the I-30 corridor south of Little Rock are frequently affected.
During ice storms, Arkansas bridges and overpasses freeze before road surfaces. Check ArDOT cameras along your route before traveling — conditions can vary dramatically over short distances during freezing rain events.
Severe Weather
Arkansas sits in Tornado Alley's southeastern edge, with severe thunderstorm season running from March through June. Heavy rain events can cause flash flooding on highway underpasses and low-lying road sections, particularly in the Ozark Mountain areas of northern Arkansas and the Arkansas River Valley.
