GREAT FALLS, Mont. — The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) is announcing and inviting the public to comment on a proposal that will resurface about 2 miles of US Highway 89 (US 89), commonly known as 10th Avenue South, near Malmstrom Air Force Base in Great Falls. The project begins at the intersection with 26th Street South and extends east, ending just past the intersection with the US Highway 87 (US 87) Bypass.
Proposed work includes replacing curb ramps, milling the existing surface, applying a new overlay, and finishing with a seal and cover (chip seal), upgraded pavement markings, and signage. The purpose of the project is to address pavement deterioration and extend the service life of the roadway.
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, Great Falls office, PO Box 1359, Great Falls, MT 59403-1359. Please note that comments are for project UPN 10690.
The public is encouraged to contact Great Falls District Project Development Engineer Jimmy Combs at 406-454-5900 or District Projects Engineer Chris Ward at 406-454-5894 with questions or comments about the project.
