MONTANA Department of Transportation MONTANA Department of Transportation MONTANA Department of Transportation MDT completes replacement of 16 timber bridges in northeastern Montana. The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) and its partners, Sletten Construction and Morrison-Maierle, have completed the Timber Bridges-Glasgow area project, successfully replacing 16 aging timber bridges across Valley, Daniels, and Roosevelt Counties in just three years. Seven timber bridges were replaced in 2023, and eight in 2024. Work on the final bridge, the West Fork Poplar River Bridge located on Montana Highway 248 (MT 248) 2 miles east of Richland, has recently been completed. This project was the first to utilize MDT’s innovative bridge bundling program, which combines multiple bridge replacements into a single design-build contract, allowing Morrison-Maierle to collaborate with Sletten Construction from the start of the project. By streamlining design and construction, projects are delivered more efficiently, saving time and lowering costs. For more information and a list of the bridge replacements and their locations, visit mdt.mt.gov/pubinvolve/glasgowtb/.
