On Monday, Conway Mayor Bart Castleberry issued a Code Red Alert for the city.

If the floodwater numbers projected along the Arkansas River hold, then water could possibly top the Lollie Levee. This will likely affect areas in Conway, including areas along Tucker Creek and its tributaries.

Recent rainfall, predicted future rainfall, and our inability to drain stormwater into the Arkansas River and Lake Conway will put stress on Conway’s stormwater drainage systems. This could contribute to a secondary flooding issue along creeks, tributaries, and drainage ditches.

Moving forward, the City of Conway will distribute information through social media accounts, the city’s website, and through local media every day at 1:00pm.      MORE
