North 27th Avenue Connection Improves Safety, Connectivity, Access


BOZEMAN -- The City of Bozeman has just completed the North 27th Avenue Connection construction project, linking North 27th from Durston all the way up to East Valley Center. The road is now paved and fully open to serve the public and connect neighborhoods.

This project, twenty years in the making, includes several road improvements to improve safety, connectivity, and access for drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians. The new North 27th Avenue section runs from Baxter Lane to Cattail Street and includes left-turn lanes, shared-use paths in each direction, street lighting and landscaping, a signal at the Baxter Lane intersection, and a roundabout at the Cattail intersection.


The project totaled $5.7 million in public infrastructure investments and involved months of work, from initial planning, right-of-way acquisition, and engineering in 2025 through construction this year. The new road improves north-south traffic flow in west Bozeman and offers improved connectivity to businesses and homes.


“We are excited to open the North 27th Avenue Connection project to everyone in Bozeman,” said City Engineer Emiliano Esparza. “We appreciate our community’s patience and understanding during this construction phase, and we look forward to sharing the reconstructed road’s traffic and safety improvements with our community.”
