Highway 93 expansion project south of Missoula casting wider net

An expansion project on Highway 93 south of Missoula is growing. Following the Lolo to Florence Corridor study to improve safety, MHP is now looking at covering the entire 93 corridor to the southern edge of Missoula and in the northern end of the Bitterroot Valley, which would include problematic Lolo “S” curves. Officials said that area can become a major bottleneck with accidents during heavy morning and afternoon rush hour traffic. A second round of meetings with the public and stakeholders is expected later this summer or fall.
