Butte area STP structures (CN & CE) multiple routes/counties, rehabilitate structures on various routes

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded Montana Department of Transportation $2.74 million under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on September 4, 2025, for the rehabilitation of four bridges across multiple counties and routes within the Butte District. The project encompasses comprehensive bridge restoration work including superstructure replacement, deck and substructure concrete repairs, rail replacement, crack sealing, bridge and approach work, and associated approach roadway improvements. This formula grant, which represents a standard allocation mechanism under the Federal-aid Highway Program, will fund eligible transportation infrastructure improvements on public roads within the state's transportation priorities.

The project is scheduled for completion by November 30, 2028, with work to be performed across multiple locations throughout Montana. As a formula grant under FHWA's Highway Planning and Construction program, this award reflects the federally assisted, state-administered structure of the Federal-aid Highway Program, wherein Montana DOT assumes primary responsibility for project selection, design, environmental compliance, and construction oversight in accordance with applicable federal requirements and stewardship agreements.
