Summary

Pondera County approved submission of cost estimates for five bridge quick-fix projects to the Montana Department of Transportation for reimbursement, listing itemized amounts per site.

Pondera County commissioners voted May 21 to approve the county’s cost estimates for five bridge repair or quick-fix projects for submission to the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) for reimbursement.

Staff presented line-item estimates: Tri Fork Road bridge quick-fix entry at $6,374.20; Eastlake Road total repair and teardown costs combining to $29,046.69 (including $9,911.13 detour cost and $3,107.68 teardown); Trent Butte Road repairs at $7,068.66; Midway Road East repairs at $4,011.58; and Swanson Road bridge replacement and culvert work at $25,312.34. Staff said the Swanson Road work is already complete.

Commissioners moved and seconded approval of the reimbursement submission; the motion passed by voice vote. Staff said engineers reviewed and approved the work estimates. The meeting record indicates these amounts are being submitted for reimbursement rather than immediate new county expenditures.
