I think I'm going to hit the Beartooth Highway on my way from Glacier NP to the Badlands....


Take note Bama man!
Work will soon begin on the Beartooth Highway.
A project overview was released by Missouri River Contractors, the company contracted by WYDOT, Yellowstone National Park, and Shoshone National Forest to undertake
WY TIG 212 (9) – a rather intense construction project on the Beartooth Highway this summer. The project consists of:
Constructing a new 400-foot steel girder, 2-lane bridge spanning the Beartooth Ravine
Straightening the roadway alignment
Retaining walls
Laying back of slopes
Installing drainage structures
Replacing the existing roadway surface
The project begins at the west end of the Beartooth Highway Lake Bridge and proceeds westward for approximately ¾ of a mile.
There are a number of traffic patterns and changes to expect if you head over the highway in the coming months. Beginning July 7th, Beartooth Highway to be closed at night between mile post 22.8(Just west of Ghost Creek)and 27.4 (Just West of Beartooth Lake Campground), Mondays through Thursdays from 8pm to 7am. During this period, no traffic will be allowed through the Project site. During the day, there will be one-way traffic through the construction site, controlled by a pilot car and temporary traffic signals at each end. Motorists should expect delays up to 30-minutes, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 7pm.


Thanks for the heads up. I plan to pass through during the day. If the delay is only 30min, that's ok. I'll keep an eye on it to see if stuff changes.

Thanks again!
