Construction on the new rest stop is supposed to start soon.

Let's just say there are a few road construction projects you need to be aware of.

Workers are scrambling this week as they put the finishing touches on the beautiful 2020 Fall Parade of Homes houses. The 30th annual event kicks off this weekend with social distancing rules.

They have awarded the contract for the bridge over the Yellowstone River for the Billings bypass, according to the Montana Department of Transportation.

The rumors are true. Laurel is getting it's first Wendy's. Heavy equipment is already prepping the site for construction and the store is hoping to be open July 1st, 2020.

Let's make sure the suspect is caught and prosecuted. They could have killed this person.

We have two big seasons in Montana: hunting season and construction season. Guess which one people like better? Chip sealing is big now and watch for the project at the I-90/I -94 Interchange. Expect delays and watch the signs, 6am to midnight...

Billings, we must be excited to see traffic lights going up at the intersection of Hesper and 32nd. Congested traffic at this intersection will finally see more flow once the lights become operational.

If you're planning on heading into the Heights this weekend, perhaps for the Health and Fitness Expo at MetraPark, keep in mind that Fourth Avenue does have a couple of lanes closed. It doesn't start until around 23rd Street, so it isn't terrible, but Zimmerman Trail may be more appealing for some...

I'm no urban planner but there had to be a better plan for all this road construction than what we've been dealing with here in the downtown core the last week or so. Just today on my lunch hour I had to reroute to get myself some Pizza Pizza...
