The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) would like to announce and invite the public to comment on a proposal to complete storm drainage repairs by replacing an existing storm drain with about 130 feet of new storm drainpipe next to North River Road. The project begins at the intersection with 10th Street North and extends east along the north side of North River Road.
Proposed work includes excavating to remove and abandon the existing drainpipe and installing a new storm drainpipe. The purpose of the project is to restore storm water drainage through the project area.
Construction is tentatively planned for 2025 depending on completion of design and availability of funds. Right-of-way acquisition or temporary construction permits are not anticipated. Relocation of utilities may be necessary. Landowners may be contacted 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, Great Falls office, PO Box 1359, Great Falls, MT 59403-1359. Please note that comments are for project UPN 10612000.
The public is encouraged to contact Great Falls District Preconstruction Engineer James A. Combs at 406-454-5900 with questions or comments about the project.
