Latest Update:

Thank you for your patience and understanding as the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) and LHC continue roadwork on the Kalispell Bypass – Foys Lake Road Interchange.

Drivers will now be shifted to a detour on the northbound on- and off-ramps and the roundabout on the Meridian Road side of the project.

Travelers will notice crews installing walls for the overpass. The overpass will go into full construction later this summer.

 Pipe and drainage work is almost complete. In addition, the roundabout on the Foys Lake side of the project is almost done being paved! Great progress is being made on all fronts.

Lastly, next week the southbound off-ramp is being paved and the bike path will be tied into the project.  

With changing traffic patterns, please be mindful of flaggers, equipment and signs as you drive through the work zone. 

On behalf of MDT, we are excited to share with you a video about the Foys Lake Road Interchange. This video provides a reminder of why this work is being completed. Follow this link to view!
