LocationArua is approximately {{convert|440|km|mi}}, by road, north-west of Kampala, the capital and largest city of Uganda,[3] and approximately {{convert|195|km|mi}}, by road, west of Gulu, the largest town in the Northern Region.[4] OverviewArua is an important base for non-governmental organizations working in the West Nile sub-region or serving Western Equatoria in South Sudan and the northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. It became an important commercial supply centre and transport route[5] when the Yei–Juba road opened, enabling supplies to come into Juba from the south on the Kaya Highway instead of through Khartoum from the north. TransportA branch of the Uganda Railways was extended to Arua sometime after 1964,[6] but there has been no passenger rail service in Uganda for many years.[7] The Vurra–Arua–Koboko–Oraba Road passes through town, in a south/north direction.[8] The city is served by Arua Airport, which has scheduled air service.[9] PopulationThe 2002 national census estimated the population of Arua Town at 43,930. In 2010, the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) estimated the population to be 57,500. In 2011, UBOS estimated the population at 59,400.[10] In August 2014, the national population census put the population at 62,657.[11] ClimateArua has a tropical savanna climate (Köppen climate classification Aw). {{Weather box|location = Arua (1961–1990) |single line = Yes |metric first = Yes |Jan record high C = 34.4 |Feb record high C = 36.1 |Mar record high C = 37.8 |Apr record high C = 35.6 |May record high C = 33.3 |Jun record high C = 30.6 |Jul record high C = 30.0 |Aug record high C = 31.1 |Sep record high C = 30.6 |Oct record high C = 32.4 |Nov record high C = 33.3 |Dec record high C = 33.6 |year record high C = 37.8 |Jan high C = 30.5 |Feb high C = 31.1 |Mar high C = 30.2 |Apr high C = 28.8 |May high C = 27.9 |Jun high C = 27.1 |Jul high C = 26.1 |Aug high C = 26.3 |Sep high C = 27.2 |Oct high C = 27.9 |Nov high C = 28.4 |Dec high C = 29.1 |year high C = 28.4 |Jan low C = 17.4 |Feb low C = 18.0 |Mar low C = 18.3 |Apr low C = 18.0 |May low C = 17.5 |Jun low C = 16.9 |Jul low C = 16.4 |Aug low C = 16.3 |Sep low C = 16.5 |Oct low C = 16.9 |Nov low C = 17.2 |Dec low C = 17.0 |year low C = 17.2 |Jan record low C = 12.8 |Feb record low C = 11.1 |Mar record low C = 13.9 |Apr record low C = 13.9 |May record low C = 14.4 |Jun record low C = 13.2 |Jul record low C = 11.7 |Aug record low C = 11.1 |Sep record low C = 12.2 |Oct record low C = 14.1 |Nov record low C = 14.4 |Dec record low C = 12.8 |year record low C = 11.1 |precipitation colour = green |Jan precipitation mm = 17.5 |Feb precipitation mm = 36.6 |Mar precipitation mm = 90.7 |Apr precipitation mm = 120.4 |May precipitation mm = 127.6 |Jun precipitation mm = 146.4 |Jul precipitation mm = 154.5 |Aug precipitation mm = 216.9 |Sep precipitation mm = 173.0 |Oct precipitation mm = 209.5 |Nov precipitation mm = 125.1 |Dec precipitation mm = 29.8 |year precipitation mm = 1448.0 |unit precipitation days = 1.0 mm |Jan precipitation days = 1.4 |Feb precipitation days = 3.0 |Mar precipitation days = 7.0 |Apr precipitation days = 9.0 |May precipitation days = 8.7 |Jun precipitation days = 8.5 |Jul precipitation days = 11.3 |Aug precipitation days = 12.6 |Sep precipitation days = 11.5 |Oct precipitation days = 13.8 |Nov precipitation days = 9.7 |Dec precipitation days = 3.1 |year precipitation days = 99.6 |time day = 14:00 |Jan humidity = 38 |Feb humidity = 36 |Mar humidity = 44 |Apr humidity = 56 |May humidity = 60 |Jun humidity = 63 |Jul humidity = 67 |Aug humidity = 66 |Sep humidity = 62 |Oct humidity = 60 |Nov humidity = 53 |Dec humidity = 46 |year humidity = 54 |source 1 = World Meteorological Organization[12] |source 2=Deutscher Wetterdienst (extremes and humidity)[13] }} ActivitiesAdministrative activitiesThe following administrations are seated in Arua:
