The Bigfork North and South EA evaluated improvement options for MT Highway 35 from Woods Bay to north of Bigfork. The Ice Box Canyon project is the first segment of this larger improvement area to proceed into the design phase. Decisions made during design of the Ice Box Canyon project will have a precedent-setting effect on how the Highway 35 improvements are constructed through the remainder of Bigfork, at least as far south as the Grand Avenue/Holt Drive intersection. These design decisions include reducing the overall width of the improvements by eliminating roadside drainage ditches and replacing them with curb and gutter. These roadside elements were not included in the EA’s Preferred Alternative, so they are being presented here as part of the environmental reevaluation process. The purpose of these graphics is to facilitate public consideration of, and input on, the proposed changes, to coordinate the design improvements occurring in the Ice Box Canyon project with the remainder of the corridor through Bigfork, and to assist with the environmental reevaluation.
