Road connections via State Highway 51, known as the Broken Arrow Expressway, and the regional highway network further simplify travel by car to the city's halls, sports facilities and other event locations, while the combination of local transit and road connections is also useful for continuing toward larger arenas in Tulsa.
Before or after a concert or game, it is worth taking a walk through the Rose District and historic Main Street, where visitors will find public art, restaurants and restored downtown buildings. To discover the city's local history, visitors can explore The Museum Broken Arrow, while Central Park and Ray Harral Nature Park provide a greener break from the urban pace. This combination of a historic downtown, cultural attractions and parks makes Broken Arrow a practical place to extend a stay before or after an event.
