Memorandum
REPORT TO:Transportation Board
FROM:Nicholas Ross, Director of Transportation and Engineering
SUBJECT:Staff Updates
MEETING DATE:March 25, 2026
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:Citizen Advisory Board/Commission
RECOMMENDATION:Receive staff update and participate in discussion.
STRATEGIC PLAN:1.1 Outreach: Continue to strengthen and innovate in how we deliver
information to the community and our partners.
BACKGROUND:The Director of Transportation and Engineering, Nicholas Ross provides the
Board with staff updates and transportation related items.
N 27th: Baxter to Cattail Notice of Award
The Department received five bids to construct N 27th from
Baxter to Cattail with a low bid of $5,332,520.25. Substantial
budget savings are anticipated based on the Engineer's Estimate
of $7.5m.
2026 Street Maintenance Notice of Award
The Department opened bids for our 2026 Street Maintenance
project on March 18th. The apparent low bidder came in at
$1.6m with an Engineer's Estimate of $2.1m This project
includes mill and overlay of Baxter from Riata to Cottonwood, N
15th from Durston to Oak, and Babcock from Willson to Rouse.
ADA and pedestrian safety improvements totaling more than
$200,000 are included in the contract across all routes with
substantial work to add curb extensions at Babcock/Black and
Babcock/Bozeman.
Oak & Ferguson Signal Improvement Accelerated Procurement
The Department has accelerated procurement of traffic signal
poles for the Oak and Ferguson Signal Improvement project
anticipated to begin construction this July. This project will
improve safety and intersection capacity by constructing missing
left turn lanes on Oak St and modifying signal phasing to provide
protected left turn movements. A 2023 safety study of Oak St
west of N 27th found the intersections with Flanders Mill and
Ferguson to have a crash frequency and severity rates well
above predictive performance. The Department completed
safety improvements at Flanders in 2025 and will complete the
3
Ferguson improvement in 2026 using Impact Fee and Arterial &
Collector funds. Accelerated procurement of signal
infrastructure was chosen to reduce risk of project delay due to
long lead times the industry continues to face post-pandemic.
Bids for the overall project will be opened April 3rd.
Shared Use Path: S 19th Lincoln to Kagy
The Department has completed in-house design of a shared use
path on S 19th from Lincoln to Kagy (FY26 A&C016). This project
will improve existing sidewalk sections into a shared use path to
provide a separated bicycle facility along a stretch of narrow
bike lane adjacent to a high volume, high speed route. Bidding
and construction anticipated summer of 2026.
College St: 8th to 11th Final Design
Final design plans for the renovation of College St from 8th to
11th are on track to be complete by the end of March. Bidding is
anticipated for late April/early May with construction to begin in
the summer of 2026.
McIlhattan Road Bikefill Improvements
The Department is completing final design in partnership with
GVLT for the reconstruction of the gravel portion of McIlhattan
Road. Roadway improvements will remediate slope failures that
have caused the road to be reduced to a single lane in sections
while adding guardrail to support safe access to the upcoming
Bikefill mountain bike park. The project will now advance to
bidding and construction in the summer of 2026.
Fowler Ave: Oak to Durston Update
Final plans for the first construction segment of the Fowler
Avenue Connection from Oak to Durston are complete and staff
continues making good progress on final right of way
acquisition. Staff intends to bid this segment this summer to
take advantage of the competitive bidding environment, but
first must finalize right of way acquisition to reduce risk of
project delays and cost penalties. Staff will host a final public
meeting for this first construction segment from Oak to Durston
consisting of plans display and construction schedule update
once the project has been awarded for construction.
SS4A Safety Action Plan RFPs
The Department received five responses to a request for
qualifications to complete the city's Safe Streets for All (SS4A)
Safety Action Plan. This grant-funded safety plan will be
completed with the upcoming Transportation Master Plan
update to provide the city's first full transportation safety plan.
Two demonstration activities are included in the planning which
consist of implementing a customized safety data platform for
the city and installation of safety data collection hardware and
software at eight signalized intersections.
2026 Neighborhood Traffic Calming
The Department received 16 applications in the first year of our
4
Neighborhood Traffic Calming program. Staff will now complete
the screening and data collection process with implementation
of qualifying projects to begin this summer.

Memorandum
REPORT TO:Transportation Board
FROM:Jeff Butts, MPO Manager
SUBJECT:Gallatin Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization Long Range
Transportation Plan Update and Request for Input
MEETING DATE:March 25, 2026
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:Plan/Report/Study
RECOMMENDATION:Participate in the Gallatin Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO)
Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) update and request for input
STRATEGIC PLAN:1.3 Public Agencies Collaboration: Foster successful collaboration with other
public agencies and build on these successes.
BACKGROUND:The Gallatin Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) was
established following the 2020 Census after the Bozeman urbanized area
exceeded the 50,000 population threshold. Federal code conditions receipt
of surface transportation funding on the designation of an MPO and the
establishment of a continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive
performance-based multimodal transportation planning process.
The MPO provides a regional forum for transportation planning among the
Cities of Bozeman and Belgrade, Gallatin County, Streamline, Montana State
University, and state and federal transportation partners. The MPO is
governed by the Transportation Policy Coordinating Committee (TPCC),
which includes two representatives from the Bozeman City Commission.
Current Work
The MPO is preparing its first Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) for the
Metropolitan Planning Area (MPA). The LRTP will include a fiscally
constrained project list informing the MPO's Transportation Improvement
Program (TIP), which is incorporated into the Statewide Transportation
Improvement Program (STIP). These programs direct Federal surface
transportation funding.
The LRTP is being developed through a phased process that includes existing
conditions analysis, transit planning, and evaluation of future alternatives.
The project team has completed the Transit Strategic Plan and the Existing
Conditions Report and is now entering the Alternatives Analysis phase.
The Transit Strategic Plan, funded by the Urban Transportation District
(UTD), identified potential enhanced transit connections linking the North
7th corridor near I-90, Downtown Bozeman, Montana State University, and
17
the West Main Street–West College Street activity center.
The next phase will compare a future no-build condition with three
investment approaches to help identify projects that best advance the LRTP
goals.
The draft LRTP goals are provided below:
Support Safe Travel Across All Modes
Ensure a Well-Maintained Transportation System
Expand Mobility Choices Throughout the Region
Enhance Health, Quality of Life, and Preserve Regional Character
Enhance Transportation and Land Use Planning Coordination
Improve Transportation System Resilience
Requested Input
Staff will provide an overview of the MPO and the LRTP process and invite
the Transportation Board to identify potential projects, regional
considerations, including connectivity and system performance, and other
priorities to inform LRTP development. Input at this stage will help ensure
locally identified priorities are reflected as alternatives are developed and
evaluated.
This item is presented for information and discussion. No formal action is
requested.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES:None.
ALTERNATIVES:As suggested by the board.
FISCAL EFFECTS:None.
