Culvert Replacements To Occur Near Wolf Point
The Montana Department of Transportation is announcing and inviting the public to comment on a proposal that will rehabilitate or replace culverts in three locations on US Highway 2 and one location on Montana Highway 24:
• US 2 in Phillips County, 1 mile west of Dodson.
• US 2 in Roosevelt County, 12 miles east of Wolf Point.
• US 2 in Roosevelt County, 2 miles east of Poplar.
• MT 24 in McCone County, 28 miles south of Fort Peck.
Proposed work includes rehabilitating culverts that are generally in good condition but show signs of aging and replacing culverts that are in poor condition and beyond rehabilitation. The purpose of this project is to protect the integrity of these roadways by completing necessary culvert repairs or replacements.
Construction is tentatively planned beyond MDT’s fiveyear planning horizon but has the potential to begin earlier depending on completion of design and availability of funds. Right-of-way acquisition or temporary construction permits will likely be required for this project. Relocation of utilities may also be necessary. MDT staff will contact affected landowners prior to survey work. Landowners may be contacted again prior to construction regarding temporary permits.
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, Glendive office, PO Box 890, Glendive, MT 59330-0890. Please note that comments are for project UPN 10527000.
The public is encouraged to contact Glendive District preconstruction engineer Jim Frank at 406-345-8214 or project design engineer Joy Fleming at 406-345-8221 with questions or comments about the project.
