The Montana Department of Transportation
(MDT) will host two opportunities for the public to learn about the North of Stevensville - North project. An in-person open house will be held the evening of Nov. 16 followed by a virtual open house the following afternoon. “This is a big project that will require extensive right-of-way acquisition and utility relocation,”
District 1 Construction Engineer John Schmidt said. “We hope folks will join us at one of these open houses to learn more about where we are in this process and what residents can expect as the project moves forward.”
Beginning about four miles north of Stevensville on Secondary 203, also known as Eastside Highway, the project will stretch nearly six miles to the north where it will tie into the Florence -East project that was constructed in 2014.Reconstruction of this section of highway will include widening the roadway to 44 feet consisting of two 12-foot travel lanes, a 12-foot center two-way left-turn lane, and 4-foot
shoulders on either side. Additional improvements include revisions to roadside slopes to improve safety and upgraded drainage features. Sharp horizontal curves at Rathbun Lane and Ambrose Creek Road will be replaced with large radius curves as well.
The in-person open house will be held on Nov. 16 in the Lone Rock School Multi-Purpose Room (1112 3 Mile Creek Rd, Stevensville, MT 59870). No formal presentation will be made, and visitors are welcome to drop by any time between 4:30 and 7 p.m. to view display boards
and talk directly to the project team.
The Nov. 17 virtual open house will be held from 12 to 1 p.m. via Zoom and registration is required. Anyone interested in attending may register at https://mtgov.
zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_jts14Q4xR7O2uzKW9jL2AA. This open house will consist of a brief presentation followed by a question and answer session.
