Comments for “Belgrade Transportation Master Plan Update”
-
Create a new overpass with new east & west exists and entrances to I-90 at some point east of the Gallatin River & Belgrade to reduce excessive traffic on the frontage road and the messed up Jackrabbit/Main St/RR intersection, which are HUGE safety issues for Belgrade residents. Trying to "patch" the funneling of traffic into Belgrade to access other areas simply is NOT working.
-
Some kind of crossing here would be great. Lots of ins and outs in the area make it hard get through on foot.
-
Truck stop should be required to have it's own on/off ramp. It is situated outside of several large residential communities and it has cause traffic issues ever since it was allowed to open.
-
Traffic control during heavy commute times is a nightmare. Traffic light recalibration should be done on a more frequent evaluation.
-
This road needs to be owned by the county or city and paved and maintained as such. Having this access would improve the Industrial park traffic onto Jackrabbit for those that need to head South.
-
Open this access again. Industrial park traffic onto Jackrabbit would improve with people trying to go West.
-
I live in this neighborhood and don't mind the lack of sidewalks. Drivers are respectful and kids still play in the street. I would love to have some boulevard trees to reduce traffic noise.
-
I love the streamline. I would take it more often if there were more options for times. I'd love an additional afternoon bus and a later one (to get home after a post-work engagement). I usually ride my bike once I am in Bozeman so I love that I can bring it.
-
Could there be a bike/pedestrian overpass here? Maybe part of a larger network of safe bike and pedestrian routes that allow kids to get to school and activities safely.
-
Traffic noise from this road is also a factor. Planting trees in the storm swale/open space here and on the berm above the ditch (with ditch owner's approval) could help. Of course, you wouldn't want to impact the sledding!
-
Would love a shared use path along dry creek that connects to Manhattan's bike paths.
-
Maybe certain streets, allies, and parks could create a running/biking loop that connects all Belgrade neighborhoods safely. Neighbors could voluntarily spice up their segments with art or plantings. Because our biggest streets are so scary, creating alternative routes could be a safer and more peaceful option.
-
This could be a great pedestrian route from the airport to downtown
-
A shared use path connecting Jackrabbit paths and Alaska South to Cameron Bridge Fishing access would be great.
-
A sidewalk or shared use path along frontage would be great for getting to the airport
-
Sidewalk or shared use path connecting downtown to the airport and bus stops would make a lot of sense here!
-
Traffic noise makes these parks and trails (particularly the one right along 90) very undesirable. A sound wall or a row of evergreen trees (irrigated for the first few years- possibly connected to adjacent park irrigation) would make the whole neighborhood quieter.
-
Bike/Pedestrian path would be great for commuters
-
Shared use path or bike route here would be a great way to connect river rock to the rest of Belgrade and make it possible for kids below driving age to get into town for activities, sports, summer camp, or jobs. Also like the option of using an alternative route along Frank and Thorpe roads to connect this side of town.
-
This bridge and the entrance to Irwin Bridge fishing access are not safely walkable. It would be great for kids to be able to access this awesome park from the bike path and cross the bridge and road safely.
-
This intersection is confusing and seems likely to cause an accident. The exit of the gas station across from the divided entrance/exit to Oregon street creates some confusion.
-
Would LOVE a shared use path that goes to North Seventh St in Bozeman along Frontage. It is the fastest way to get to downtown bozeman, and would be the most scenic/direct if it were safe. Currently steep shoulders and the lack of a continuous bike lane make it not safe.
-
High density housing with little parking forces many people to park on the sidewalk in River Rock. This, in turn, forces pedestrians into the street.
-
Blind and dangerous high speed intersection.
-
Trying to turn left out of Town Pump is a nightmare, especially during morning rush hour. Hundreds of trucks use this as an overnight stop throughout the week. All of those trucks leave around the same time every morning, and none of them are able to get out without someone waiting for them.
