Friendly Reminder: Next week is the Walmart Shareholders Meeting, so expect heavier traffic, road closures, and possible delays around the UofA campus and throughout the NWA region.
Please also watch for the oversized tour buses traveling across Northwest Arkansas as Walmart associates and guests get the opportunity to experience what we’re proud to call home. With additional rain chances in the forecast, road conditions could become even more challenging.
Let’s all do our part by slowing down, sharing the roadways, and giving our visitors a friendly wave — many are visiting the NWA area for the very first time. Safe travels to everyone and enjoy the Walmart annual meeting week ahead!
