Highway construction on 93 to continue at night

Riverside Contracting crews will construct the sub-base of the new southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 93 this week and plan to work from 6 a.m.-6:30 p.m. Monday-Saturday, as well as during the night from 9 p.m.-7 a.m. Tuesday-Thursday.

Overnight, concrete crews will work at the intersection of Round Butte Rd. and U.S. 93. Traffic flaggers will be on hand.

According to a press release, the Montana Department of Transportation anticipates fewer traffic delays through the construction zone going forward; however, flaggers will still be present at the truck turnarounds at the Round Butte and Terrace Lake intersection and at the Old U.S. 93/3rd Ave. intersection.

Work on the approach to Lake Seed has resumed this week and once the approach is complete, Spring Creek Road at U.S. 93 will be permanently closed. That could happen the week of June 19.

Glover Road and U.S. 93 safety improvements

North of the Ronan-North project, MDT, in partnership with Riverside Contracting, have begun work on a safety project near Pablo on Glover Road, just west of U.S. 93. Pavement preservation work is also underway and extends from just north of Ronan to the north of Pablo, ending at the intersection of the highway with Minesinger Trail.
