Arkansas Waterways Commission

Waterways have played a vital role in growth and productivity throughout the heartland of America. Arkansas is one of only 24 states in the United States to have the unique resource of inland waterways. The Mississippi River, which forms the eastern border of the state, is the main trade corridor for goods produced in the northern part of the U.S. traveling to gateway ports near the Gulf. The Arkansas, Ouachita, Red and White Rivers are also important transportation routes serving Arkansas. As trade between the U.S. and Latin America grows, the importance of Arkansas waterways and the strategic location of the state will enhance manufacturing and distribution opportunities.
