Construction traffic will be an ongoing issue for many years and dust is a big issue now. Can the roads be paved?
R. Yes, all primary roads will be built to county standards and will be paved. Q. Have you considered applying to make the Bridger Canyon Road designated as a “Scenic Highway”? This would require a 55 MPH speed limit in the canyon. R. This has come up in several meetings; there seems to be some support and some opposition for the idea. However, upon checking with the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT), eligible “scenic highway” routes must be entirely adjacent to public or tribal lands. Under these guidelines, Bridger Canyon would not qualify.
