RAVALLI — The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT), along with construction partner Stillwater Electric, Inc., will begin the installation of safety measures on US Highway 93 (US 93), south of Ravalli. The project begins approximately 1 mile south of North Valley Creek Road at mile marker 24 and continues north for approximately 3 miles, ending near the intersection with Buffalo Street.
The work is scheduled to begin the week of Sept. 3, weather and other factors permitting, and is anticipated to last for approximately six weeks. Crews will be working from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Crews will be installing signage, flashers and sensors to alert drivers of upcoming curves and road conditions on US 93. A sign will also be installed that will tell drivers their speed as they approach the curves. These safety improvements were selected to address road departure crashes on a series of curves.
Expect 10 to 15-minute delays, reduced speeds, and single-lane traffic when traveling through the project area. For the most up-to-date width restrictions and road conditions visit https://www.511mt.net/.
