StoryPavement Rehabilitation Project

Oakdale launches road work, plans summer events this week

The Oakdale City Council announced several updates affecting residents this week, including a month-long pavement rehabilitation project on Hadley Avenue and a temporary closure of city offices for staff training on Wednesday.

Meeting date: Aug 11, 2025
Published Jun 23, 2026

The city has begun a pavement rehabilitation project on Hadley Avenue between 10th Street and Hallmark Avenue, expected to last approximately one month depending on weather conditions. While the street will remain open to through traffic, drivers should expect partial lane closures with flaggers directing traffic. The city is asking residents to exercise caution in the work zone.

City offices will close Wednesday from 11:30 AM to 1 PM for staff training and team-building activities. The city requested public understanding and cooperation during this brief closure.

Despite the office closure, community events continue as scheduled. The summer concert series returns Wednesday evening at Walton Park Bandshell at 7 PM, featuring funk music by Sons of Groove. The free performance is part of the city's ongoing entertainment programming.

Friday evening, August 15, the city will host a free outdoor movie night at Walton Park Bandshell, showing "Mufasa" beginning at dusk, approximately 8:50 PM. The event is presented by Oakdale Recreation and the Police Department, with concessions available from the Maplewood Oakdale Lions Club.
