ALBERTON - The Montana Department of Transportation is seeking comments on a proposal to resurface about 2.4 miles of Secondary Road 507 that runs through the town of Alberton.

The project begins about 0.1 miles east of the Interstate 90 Alberton interchange on Railroad Avenue and heads east through Alberton for about 1 mile to the intersection of Railroad Avenue and Adams Street. The route continues down Adams Street to the Petty Creek interchange where it ends at reference post 2.5. This project is within Mineral and Missoula counties.

Proposed work includes crack sealing, seal and cover (chip seal), fog seal and upgraded pavement markings. The purpose of the project is to take a cost-effective action to prolong and preserve the existing pavement.

The project is tentatively scheduled for construction in 2019, depending on completion of all project development activities and availability of funding.

No new right-of-way or utility relocations will be needed.

For more information, please contact Missoula District Administrator Ed Toavs at (406) 523-5802 or Project Design Engineer Nathaniel Walters at (406) 523 5833. Members of the public may submit written comments to the Montana Department of Transportation Missoula office at P.O. Box 7039, Missoula, MT 59807-7039, or online at:

Bears seeking food sources ahead of hibernation

Montana is bear country. Black bears and grizzly bears are very active right now as denning season approaches. Bears are actively seeking food sources before winter, and residents are advised to clean up or secure food attractants, such as garbage, dog food, and livestock. Bears are particularly seeking out natural fruits, such as berries, and domestic fruits, such as apples and pears. Residents are advised to pick up any fallen fruit from their property to help prevent attracting a bear.

Rendezvousing with the past

A rugged group of individuals with a thirst for adventure and fortune made their way west after the Lewis and Clark Expedition – after some time in the wilderness they would rendezvous in places like St. Louis to trade fur and goods as well as engage in friendly competition. Stories of daring and close escapes from Indians were swapped around a campfire by people like John Colter, who ran hundreds of miles in nothing but his Birthday suit to get safely back to civilization.
