Highway Construction Update

It’s been a busy few weeks with lots of work happening throughout town (and so much rain)! Crews on Hwy. 10 have been removing pavement and poor materials west of town with storm sewer drainage pipes being placed and roadway being built behind the excavation operations. They will work to install watermain and sanitary sewer this weekend.

Multiple crews have also been working on the Hwy. 71 underground utilities such as sanitary sewer and watermain. The hospital’s pedestrian tunnel removal work is also nearly complete.

Work zone reminders

Wadena businesses are still open for everyone; however, watch for temporary changes to access in the active work zone. Please continue to drive carefully, always follow construction signs, use the entrance closest to where you’re going and stay out of closed-off areas...
