Coming Soon to the Neal & Betty Grubaugh Park
Summer 2022!
|
|
The City of Ozark is excited to announce a new inclusive playground coming to our Neal and Betty Grubaugh Park at 907 East Parkview, Ozark, MO, in Summer 2022. We are excited about having a place here in Ozark where “Everybody Can Play.” The playground will have an ADA-accessible Swing, specially engineered to secure children with mobility limitations safely. A large portion of the Play Structure is wheelchair accessible, with inclusive activities that a child can use both in sitting & standing positions. The Play area flooring was designed with mobility devices in mind making maneuvering the area easy for everyone.
A special thank you to all of our sponsors who have been vital in making this dream a reality! CC Links, The Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions Club of Ozark, Utopia Club, Cosmopolitan Club, 4C Sertoma, Equilibrium Therapy, Mo-Yak Fishing, and Impact 100 Ozark

Dear Christian County Resident,
I would like to share a few opportunities to provide feedback for the Christian County Comprehensive Plan.
Through this process, we want to ensure there is proper city-county engagement as land use and development decisions within each unit of local government may impact others.
Please consider attending one of the public open house events listed below, and help prioritize goals by completing this online survey by April 30: www.smcog.org/ChristianCountySurvey

U.S. Route 65 Resurfacing and Safety Improvements in Christian and Taney County
Beginning the Week of April 4
Christian & Taney County – Drivers can expect narrowed lanes and lane closings beginning the week of April 4 when a project to make intersection safety improvements and resurface U.S. Route 65 begins in Christian and Taney County, the Missouri Department of Transportation said.
The project targets five (5) intersections along the Route 65 highway corridor with contractor crews beginning work in the Ozark area.
For the first couple of weeks in April, drivers will see work zone signs and other work zone items installed, including new guardrail. The actual work to build the improvements will begin mid-May, with resurfacing beginning mid-July.
Here’s a look at the resurfacing and safety improvements project:
- Resurfacing Route 65 between north of Christian County Route EE in Ozark and north of Missouri Route 76 north of Branson
- Route 65 southbound turn lane improvements at Busiek Road
- Install offset right turn lanes and extended left turn lane on Route 65 at Christian County Routes A & BB
- Curve improvements on Route 65 near Saddlebrooke
- Install Route 65 southbound acceleration lane at Brookeside Drive
- Install Route 65 southbound offset right turn lane at Route 176 West
- Correct superelevation (bank) on Route 65 southbound between Route 176 West and Route 176 East
- Install Route 65 northbound offset right turn lane at Route 176 East
- High friction surface treatment on Route 65 near Sawmill Road, Woods Fork Road and Route 160
- New guardrail installed at several locations
Traffic Impacts:
- Narrowed lanes and lane closings on Route 65 at times
- During the intersection work, turn lanes may be closed at times
- Intersection medians on Route 65 may be closed at times
- Crews and equipment close to traffic in areas
- No signed detour
- During higher traffic volume times, expect occasional delays
- Drivers should find alternate routes
- Signs and message boards will alert drivers approaching the work zone
Weather and/or construction delays will alter the work schedule.
The project is scheduled for completion by November 1, 2023. (Contractor plans to have project completed end of September 2022.)
The prime contractor is APAC-Central of Springfield.
The total project cost is $10 million.
