Bill > HJ3

This bill is a legislative joint resolution recommending that the Montana Transportation Commission prioritize safety improvements at a specific intersection known as Bowman's Corner, where U.S. Highway 287 and Montana Highway 200 meet. The resolution acknowledges that the Transportation Commission, established under state law, has the authority to select and prioritize highway construction and reconstruction projects, and that state legislators have a special interest in such projects due to their representation of local districts. By passing this resolution, the Montana Legislature is formally urging the Transportation Commission to focus on enhancing safety at this particular intersection, though the resolution does not carry the force of a binding law and serves primarily as a formal recommendation from the state's legislative body.
