Project Overview
The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) and its partner Riverside Contracting will be completing pavement preservation activities on 19th Avenue from the Interstate 90 (I-90) overpass to the intersection with Main Street in Bozeman. The N. 19th Avenue - Bozeman project will mill off the upper layer of pavement and replace it with new pavement. This project also includes signal upgrades and pedestrian accessibility improvements.
Lane reconfiguration at the intersection with the I-90 eastbound ramps will include an additional northbound through lane. This lane reconfiguration will address long queue lengths at the intersection.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) improvements will occur at select intersections throughout the project area.
This project will also add dedicated turn lanes at the intersection of East Valley Center Road and North 19th Avenue, and North 19th Avenue to eastbound I-90. This work will involve pavement widening along both locations. In addition to a turn lane along North 19th Avenue, sidewalk connectivity will be added from East Valley Center Road to the I-90 eastbound on ramp.
Schedule
Construction is anticipated to begin the week of April 13 at the north end of the project area with crews working their way south. To minimize disruptions to the traveling public, work will occur at night, between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. Sunday through Friday. Construction is not anticipated to occur Friday or Saturday evenings.
Traffic Control
During evening hours, watch for flaggers, reduced speeds, single-lane traffic, and illuminated signage.
- There will be a 12-foot width restriction in place during construction hours
- During daytime hours, traffic will resume as normal
