Wadena is OPEN during construction. Hwy 29 and 71 will be open one lane in each direction - businesses, schools, and neighborhoods are accessible through the work zone. Keep an eye out for flaggers, narrow lanes, and lane shifts.
We encourage you to shop local during these times! Every purchase made during construction helps support local families, local jobs, and the businesses that make Wadena special. When shopping or eating in Wadena, try using side streets and alleys to more easily reach your destination. Look for back entrances to main street businesses, and take advantage of municipal parking lots! (A municipal parking lot map is attached for those curious)
Thank you for weathering through the construction while they make these improvements for our community!
