BOZEMAN — The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) and CK May Excavating plan to start chip seal work on Interstate 90 (I-90) the week of July 21, pending weather and other unforeseen factors. Drivers should anticipate single lane closures during the construction process.
From 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, a 16-foot width restriction will be in effect.
During this construction period, motorists can expect the following:
- Flaggers directing traffic at various times
- I-90 traffic reduced to one lane in each direction
- Reduced speed limits
- Width restrictions
