HAMILTON, Mont. — The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) is announcing and inviting the public to comment on a proposal that will modify the existing left-turn lanes on US Highway 93 (US 93) at the Woodside Cutoff Road intersection by removing the raised median.
This project will enhance roadway safety features by improving sight distance for both north- and south-bound traffic turning left at the intersection.
Construction is tentatively planned for 2027 depending on completion of design and availability of funds. No new right-of-way or utility relocations will be needed.
Partnering with the community is an important part of properly planning for future projects. MDT welcomes the public to provide ideas and comments on the proposed project. Comments may be submitted online at mdt.mt.gov/contact/comment-form.aspx or in writing to Montana Department of Transportation, Missoula office, PO Box 7039, Missoula, MT 59807-7039. Please note that comments are for project UPN 10295000.
The public is encouraged to contact Missoula District Preconstruction Engineer Joel Boucher at 406-544-5802 or Project Design Engineer Dan Cunningham at 406-444-7620 with questions or comments about the project.
