Jackrabbit Lane recently underwent a major construction and the job was finished earlier this year.  Now, the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) is seeking to notify as well as receive public comments on a new proposal to widen Jackrabbit Lane in 2023.

The portion of Jackrabbit Lane that will effected by this proposal extends from Madison Avenue to Main Street in Belgrade.  This is about a half mile of Jackrabbit Lane.  The road would be widened to five lanes, which would include a center turn lane, curbs, gutters, and a sidewalk.  Additional work at intersections would also be needed as well.

MDT is asking for the public to weigh in on this proposed construction.  If you would like to comment you can submit your comments online, by mail at Montana Department of Transportation Butte office at P.O. Box 3068, Butte, MT 59702-3068. More information on the projected project here.
