Good morning,
  
The week of August 15 through August 19, crews remain present throughout the Mullan area.
 
PLEASE WATCH FOR SIGNS AND SLOW DOWN ON MULLAN ROAD.
 
As a reminder, school starts for Missoula County Public Schools on Wednesday, August 31. Please be aware of increased traffic and pedestrians and continue to be cautious throughout the area.
 
Roadwork is taking place on the north end of Mary Jane Boulevard. Specifically, paving continues between Veterans Way, Flynn Lane, and up to Broadway. 
 
Connected to this, but part of a different MDT project, crews are starting the installation of a signalized intersection where Mary Jane Boulevard connects to Broadway. This project also includes improvements to the Flynn Lane/Broadway intersection. Traffic detours will be present in the coming weeks as Flynn Lane and Mary Jane Boulevard will be partially closed for periods of time to facilitate the construction.  Please anticipate delays.
 
In addition, a detour remains on Mullan Road located immediately east of Flynn Lane. Here, crews are continuing the construction of the roundabout at the intersection of Mary Jane Boulevard and Mullan Road. 
 
Similar to past weeks, George Elmer Drive between Mullan Road and Bell Tower Road is closed through the end of the construction season for the installation of a roundabout. Traffic continues to be detoured.
 
This week, a detour on Mullan Road will be opened and traffic will be shifted to the detour as crews begin constructing the roundabout at the intersection of George Elmer and Mullan Road. Drivers can anticipate shifting to the detour starting mid-week.
 
Lastly, utility work is taking place on both sides of England Boulevard between Flynn Lane and George Elmer. 
 
Please prepare for 10 - 20 minutes of delays when traveling through any of the above work zones. 
 
An updated project timeline will be posted on the BUILD webpage this week.
 
Please feel welcome to email me at becca@bigskypublicrelations.com with any questions or feedback.
 
Additional project resources are available on the Mullan BUILD webpage: www.mullanbuild.com. 
 
Missoula County, the City of Missoula, and contractors have partnered with Kiewit Construction to complete the Mullan BUILD project, which is anticipated to be substantially completed by the end of 2022. The work includes infrastructure and roadway construction of Mary Jane Boulevard South, Mary Jane Boulevard North, England Boulevard, George Elmer Drive, and two roundabout intersections along Mullan Road (Mullan/George Elmer Drive and Mullan/Mary Jane Boulevard).
 
Take care,
Becca MacLean, on behalf of the BUILD Project Team
