News from the Montana Department of Transportation

POLSON — The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) will be conducting an inspection of the Polson Bridge on US Highway 93 (US 93). The bridge crosses the Flathead River in the heart of Polson.

The inspection is scheduled to occur the week of April 1, weather permitting, and is anticipated to take approximately one day to complete. 

A standard inspection is required by federal rule every two years. MDT will have an Under Bridge Inspection Vehicle (UBIV) in place to conduct the inspection. 

Traffic control will be in place while crews are present. Traffic will be restricted to one lane at times and travelers should expect reduced speeds of 35 mph in the work zones. For the most up-to-date width restrictions and road conditions, visit https://www.511mt.net/.

The public is encouraged to contact Joan Redeen at 406-396-1978 with any questions or comments.
