• ATU Computing Sciences Student Projects Aid Partners (arkansastechnews.com) — Arkansas Tech students are teaming up this year with Russellville groups like Main Street Russellville, the city's sustainability office, and the Russellville Housing Authority to build real-world tech solutions. Their senior projects will tackle needs such as resource navigation, public safety inventory, sustainability tracking, and exercise training tools, potentially competing in the 2027 Arkansas Governor's Cup. 
• Russellville City Staff Replace 'Traffic Signal Cabinet', Shut Down Intersection (arkansasradio.com) — Drivers in Russellville should be prepared for delays at West Main Street and Joplin Avenue, where city staff are replacing the traffic signal cabinet and temporarily converting the intersection to a four‑way stop. The work, which began at 7 p.m., means motorists need to slow down, follow temporary signs, and allow extra travel time while the project is underway.
