Montana Department of Transportation Proposes Reconstruction on Highway 89 South of Livingston
Livingston - The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) would like to notify the public and seek comments on a proposal to reconstruct about three miles of Highway 89, approximately two miles south of Livingston in Park County. The project begins south of the East River Road intersection near Carter's Bridge, at reference marker 49.7 and extends north for approximately three miles, ending at south end of Livingston at Merrill Lane, at reference marker 52.5. Proposed work includes reconstruction of the existing roadway and extension of the two-way left-turn lane, located within the Livingston Urban limits, for the full length of the project. Reconstruction will shift the alignment enough to provide adequate clear zone and minimize impacts to properties and roadside features. Drainage structures, signing, and pavement marking will be upgraded as appropriate, and a wildlife detection system will be considered. Construction is tentatively planned for 2020, depending on completion of design and availability of funds. New right-of-way and relocation of utilities will be required. MDT staff will contact all potentially affected landowners prior to performing survey work on their land. Staff will again contact landowners prior to con-struction regarding existing irrigation features, fencing, wildlife crossing/access, property acquisition, and temporary construction permits. For more information, please contact Butte District Administrator Jeff Ebert at (406) 494-9625 or Project Design Engineer Tyrel Murfitt at (406) 444 6227. Members of the public may submit written comments to the Montana Department of Transportation Butte office at P.O. Box 3068, Butte MT 59702-3068, or online at: www.mdt.mt.gov/mdt/comment_form.shtml Please note that your comments are for project UPN 8790000. Alternative accessible formats of this infor-mation will be provided upon request by contacting the Office of Civil Rights, P.O. Box 201001, Helena, MT 59620; (406) 444-9229; fax (406) 444-7243, or e-mail to [email protected]. Those using a TTY may call (800) 335-7592 or through the Montana Relay Service at 711.

Gardiner, Montana 7 day Weather Forecast
Winter Facts The Southern Hemisphere typically has milder winters than the Northern Hemisphere. This is because the
Southern Hemisphere has less land and a more maritime climate. According to the Guinness World Records, on January 28, 1887, a snowflake 15 inches wide and 8 inches
thick fell in Fort Keogh, Montana, making it the largest snowflake ever observed. Every winter, at least one septillion (that’s 1 followed by 24 zeros) snow crystals fall from the sky. One inch of snow will produce just less than 1/10 of an inch of water when melted. Ten inches of snow
will melt down to only 1 inch of water. The largest recorded snowman ever built was in Bethel, Maine, in February 1999. The 113-foot, 7-inch
snowman broke the previous record held by Yamagata, Japan, at 96 feet and 7 inches. Bismarck, North Dakota, holds the record for the most snow angels at one time. On February 17, 2007,
several schools joined forced to create 8,962 snow angels. While the winter solstice is the shortest day of the year, seasonal lag means that the coldest period usually
follows the solstice by a few weeks. A single snowstorm can drop 39 million tons of snow. Snow appears white because snow is a bunch of individual ice crystals arranged together. When light hits
snow, it bounces all around the ice crystals and the “color” of all the frequencies in the visible spectrum combined in equal measure is white. While white is the color we see in snow, individual ice crystals are actually translucent.
The most snow ever recorded in 24 hours in the United States was at Silver Lake, Colorado, in 1921 at 76 inches. Coming in second is Georgetown, Colorado, in December 4, 1913, at 63 inches.
The coldest temperature ever recorded was -123° C at Vostok Station in Antarctica in 1983. All snowflakes have 6 sides.
