Direct Connect May 2022

 The work on the direct connect project continues to be focused on the Browning Road overpass reconstruction. Work has started to build the new bridge abutment on the 76 East side of the road. Here you can see that they have started to create the concrete support columns.

There has been a lot of work going on with both projects recently but it has been hard to get good photos of. Instead I would recommend checking out a great video update over at 42 Freeway. This has some good drone footage of the work on both projects.

The left side of the ramp from 55 North to 42 North has been closed off to allow for construction at the end. When this project is complete the 55 ramp will have two lanes.

A new traffic pattern has been put in place on 295 South just below Creek Road. The left lane now splits off and goes over the newly constructed section of the bridge over Big Timber Creek. This has opened up a space for work between the left and right lanes.
