Welcome Center
On your journey into Arkansas, you'll be able to discover two Welcome Centers, both designed for visitors and truckers alike. The first being on the border close to Louisiana, where you'll find a variety of parking spots, a resting area for truckers, dedicated covered picnic tables and of course, the main welcome center itself which features the state's name and official nickname, built from locally sourced native stone!






Rest Areas
Taking regular rest breaks is vital for drivers to combat fatigue and maintain their alertness while driving long distances. While it is required for drivers to stop for at least a 30 minute break, feel free to pull in for a rest at one of Arkansas' Rest Areas whenever you like!

Weigh Stations
Whilst Welcome Centers and Rest Areas are not necessary stops on one's journey, you may be legally required to pull into a Weigh Station. Their purpose is to ensure heavy vehicles comply with state weight regulations, whilst promoting road safety and preventing damage to infrastructure.
