Charter buses can drop off and pick up passengers along the designated curb zone near the main plaza entrance off W. Broadway Street just east of the Broadway Bridge. Have your group gathered and ready to step off quickly, as active loading rules apply along Broadway Street on game days. Before the final out, text your driver so they can pull back up to the Broadway curb once everyone is together. Skipping the post-game rideshare surge has never been easier!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Dickey-Stephens Park
Oversized vehicle and charter bus parking is available in the surface lots adjacent to the ballpark off W. Broadway Street and near the River Trail parking area under the Broadway Bridge. We recommend contacting the Travelers front office ahead of your game to reserve a bus stall. Your driver can wait right in the designated lot until your group is ready to board.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Expect heavy commuter and pre-game traffic along I-30 East, the Broadway Bridge, and Main Street in North Little Rock, especially for Friday night fireworks games. Plan to depart Benton at least 60 to 90 minutes before first pitch so your group has plenty of time to grab concessions. If an event is happening simultaneously at nearby Simmons Bank Arena, add an extra 20 minutes of buffer time.

Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium
Game-day lots directly around Razorback Stadium are reserved for Razorback Foundation permit holders, so charter buses without a pre-purchased university pass typically stage in designated oversized areas near Baum-Walker Stadium (off Razorback Rd and 15th St) or off-campus commercial lots. Visiting team buses load and park in the secured zone near the Broyles Athletic Center on the north end of the stadium. Always confirm your bus parking pass with Arkansas Athletics prior to kickoff weekend.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Sections of Maple Street, Stadium Drive, and Meadow Street close to general traffic several hours before SEC kickoffs, and post-game contraflow traffic patterns go into effect toward I-49. Leave Benton early in the morning on game day so your group can enjoy pre-game tailgating at The Gardens without rushing!

From Benton, your driver will follow I-30 East to I-40 West and take I-49 North straight into Fayetteville. Once in town, exiting onto MLK Jr. Boulevard (Exit 62) and turning north onto Razorback Road provides the most direct approach to the arena’s perimeter roads. Drivers can also use W. Leroy Pond Drive or Meadow Street to access the south and east sides of the venue. Because campus streets feature tight turns and pedestrian crosswalks, our experienced drivers stick to designated truck and motorcoach routes.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Bud Walton Arena
Your charter bus can drop passengers off along Razorback Road on the west side of Bud Walton Arena or along W. Leroy Pond Drive near the south entrance plaza. Since curbside idling and waiting are prohibited on campus streets during game days, make sure your group is ready to unload as soon as the bus pulls up. After the final buzzer, gather your entire group outside the main concourse doors before calling your driver to pull back into the loading zone. That way, everyone steps right onboard without holding up post-game traffic!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Bud Walton Arena
During basketball games and special arena events, charter buses typically relocate to stage at the Baum-Walker Stadium parking lots or in Lot 56 off MLK Jr. Boulevard, depending on event parking permits. Contact the Razorback Ticket Center in advance to verify oversized parking availability for your specific game date.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Traffic builds quickly along MLK Jr. Boulevard, Razorback Road, and Garland Avenue Starting two hours before tip-off, especially for weeknight SEC games that overlap with campus rush hour. Check for temporary lane restrictions on Leroy Pond Drive and Meadow Street used for permit parking shuttles. We recommend arriving in Fayetteville at least 90 minutes prior to tip-off for a stress-free entry.

University Avenue, head north to W. 28th Street on the northwest corner of campus. Drivers can also approach from Fair Park Boulevard and Asher Avenue if University Avenue is backed up during peak hours. Our network connects you with local drivers who know Little Rock’s traffic corridors inside and out.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Jack Stephens Center
Charter buses enter the athletics complex via W. 28th Street off S. University Avenue and use the circular drive and curb zone right in front of the Jack Stephens Center main entrance. This puts your athletes, students, or fans just steps from the arena doors without crossing busy multi-lane roads. Because the front drive must stay clear for emergency and event traffic, buses may only stop for active loading and unloading. Have your whole group meet outside the main lobby after the game before calling your driver to the curb.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Jack Stephens Center
After dropping your group off at the entrance circle, your charter bus can park in Lot 13 or Lot 14 directly adjacent to the Jack Stephens Center off W. 28th Street. These spacious surface lots have no height restrictions and easily accommodate 25-passenger minibuses and full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches alike. For major tournaments or commencement days, campus police direct oversized buses to designated perimeter rows within Lot 13. Your driver can stay parked on site for quick and easy post-game boarding!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
S. University Avenue and the I-30 / I-630 interchanges see heavy congestion during weekday rush hours between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. Leaving Benton 15 to 20 minutes early ensures your team arrives relaxed and on schedule for warmups.

Compare 18-passenger minibuses, party buses, and full-size coaches in one quick search. Because we don’t own the buses, you can easily book one vehicle or an entire fleet for your roster!
Major Roadways to War Memorial Stadium
Sitting right in the heart of Little Rock inside War Memorial Park, the stadium is easily reached from Benton by taking I-30 East to I-630 East. From I-630, your driver will take Exit 4 (Fair Park Boulevard) or Exit 5 (University Avenue) and head north toward W. Markham Street. Stadium Drive loops around the venue between W. Markham Street and Fair Park Boulevard, giving charter buses direct access to the gates. If I-630 is congested, I-430 North to Cantrell Road / Markham Street offers an easy alternate route.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at War Memorial Stadium
Charter buses typically drop off and pick up passengers along Stadium Drive on the east or west sides of the stadium, or near the Fair Park Boulevard gate entrances. Team and band buses are directed by stadium staff to the designated loading zone near Gate 1 or the south tunnel entrance.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at War Memorial Stadium
Oversized vehicle, RV, and charter bus parking at War Memorial Stadium is located in the paved surface lots along Fair Park Boulevard (east of the stadium) and on the north side off W. Markham Street, depending on the event layout. Be sure to avoid the nearby Little Rock Zoo parking lot on the south end of the park unless specifically directed there by event parking staff for overflow. For AAA high school state championship games and major concerts, bus parking passes or cash-on-arrival fees apply, so check with War Memorial Stadium management ahead of time. Your bus can remain parked on site throughout the game so your group can tailgate nearby!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
During major football games and state championship weekends, Little Rock Police restrict through-traffic on Stadium Drive and manage intersections along W. Markham Street and Fair Park Boulevard. Because War Memorial Park borders the busy UAMS medical district and Park Plaza Mall at Markham and University, traffic backs up quickly in the final hour before kickoff. Plan to arrive at least 90 minutes before game time to breeze through the Fair Park gates. After the final whistle, police direct outbound traffic straight toward I-630 for a smooth ride back to Benton.
