Join colleagues, community partners, and industry stakeholders as we celebrate the grand opening of Phase Two of the Springdale Bypass (Interstate 42/Highway 642) and the Northwest Arkansas National Airport (XNA) Connector Road (Highway 642).
Together, these projects will improve safety, ease congestion, enhance connectivity, and support the continued growth of one of the nation’s fastest-growing regions. With the opening of Phase Two of the bypass, 12 of the 21 miles of the entire bypass will now be completed.
Join us as we celebrate these important milestones and recognize the people, partnerships, and shared vision that made these transformative projects possible.
