Roadwork to Commence on Bagnell Dam Strip: Road improvements on the Bagnell Dam Strip should begin on Monday, October 7th, weather permitting. The work, being performed by Capital Paving, will mill the existing road surface and overlay new asphalt from the city limit line near Bagnell Dam to the intersection with School Road, where paving ended earlier this year. This project will resurface and repaint driving lanes, the turn lane, and all city-controlled parking spaces in the area. As the project commences and continues, we will provide ongoing updates. It is anticipated that this project will have minimal traffic impact, but may temporarily limit parking availability on the Strip.

Community Bridge Toll-Free Day

Today, April 30th, 2024 is Community Bridge Toll-Free Day in Lake Ozark.

On May 1, 1998, the Lake of the Ozarks Community Bridge opened to traffic and began collecting tolls to repay the bridge construction. Today, 26 years later, the final toll was collected to pay off the bridge and it is now free for all traffic.

A ceremony commemorating this occasion was held overlooking the bridge today, with a proclamation delivered by Mayor Newberry naming today as Community Bridge Toll-Free Day. Comments were heard from Lieutenant Governor Mike Kehoe, the Missouri Highway Commission, and representatives from the Community Bridge Board of Directors.

The City is thankful for the visionary leadership that conceived of this project decades ago, and is looking forward to a new era of impact this bridge holds as a toll-free facility, soon to be maintained by the State of Missouri.
