Bozeman drivers face busier summer roads as city works on safety
via NonStop Local Montana
Bozeman is preparing for increased summer traffic congestion as local officials prioritize road safety projects and infrastructure improvements.
Bozeman officials are increasing road safety budgets following a rise in aggressive driving and several recent crashes involving pedestrians and cyclists. The city plans to install protected left-turn lanes at Oak Street and Ferguson Avenue next month, along with more flashing crosswalk beacons and radar speed signs in school zones. Local experts are also reminding drivers to stay in their lanes while turning and to follow right-of-way rules at two-way stops to reduce intersection conflicts.
