The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) would like to announce and invite the public to comment on a proposal to resurface about 12.5 miles of US Highway 212, east of Lame Deer in Rosebud County. The project begins just east of the junction with MT Highway 39 and extends east for about 12.5 miles ending approximately 8 miles west of Ashland.

Proposed work includes applying a new overlay, and finishing with a seal and cover (chip seal), upgraded pavement marking, signage and guardrail. The purpose of the project is to extend the life of the pavement, provide a safer, smoother road, and reduce maintenance costs.

The project is tentatively scheduled for construction in 2024, depending on completion of all project development activities and availability of funding. No new Right-of-Way or utility relocations will be needed.

An important part of properly planning for future projects is partnering with the community. The Montana Department of Transportation welcomes the public to provide ideas and comments on the proposed project. Comments may be submitted online at http://www. mdt.mt.gov/mdt/ comment_f orm.shtml or in writing to Montana Department of Transportation, Glendive office at PO Box 890, Glendive, MT 59330-0890. Please note that comments are for project UPN 9936000.

The public is encouraged to contact Glendive District Administrator Shane Mintz at (406) 345-8212 or Project Design Engineer Steve Heidner at (406) 345 8247.
