WHITEHALL, Mont.: The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT), in partnership with Hoffman’s R&M Services, has completed the Whitehall Sidewalks project, enhancing pedestrian safety, accessibility, and connections to important community destinations.
The project added Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant sidewalks and pedestrian improvements in four areas of Whitehall:
Along the north side of Yellowstone Trail, between the pedestrian bridge at Whitetail Deer Creek and Whitetail Drive
At the intersection of East 1st Street and North Division Street
Along the east side of South Division Street, from Olive Street to near the Jefferson Valley Museum
Along the north side of West Legion Avenue, from the Jefferson Fresh Foods approach to Meadow View Lane
The new sidewalks will help connect residential neighborhoods and community destinations, including local schools, the Whitehall Community Center, the Recreation Complex, the Jefferson Valley Museum, and Jefferson Fresh Foods.
“These improvements fill some gaps in Whitehall’s pedestrian network and make it easier and safer for folks to move through the community,” said MDT Project Engineer Rick Sandoval. “We appreciate the patience and cooperation of Whitehall residents, businesses, and travelers while this work was completed.”
In addition to constructing the new sidewalks, crews completed ADA ramp upgrades, paving operations where needed, crosswalk striping, shoulder seeding, and site cleanup.
