A powerful winter storm has hit central and south-central Montana, bringing heavy snow, icy roads, and widespread travel disruptions. The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) has issued multiple advisories and road closures due to hazardous conditions in areas like Livingston, Big Timber, Bozeman, Billings, and Butte.
Major Road Closures and Travel Alerts
Interstate 90 (I-90) is closed between Bozeman and Park City, and travelers are advised to avoid non-essential trips. Snow-covered, slippery roads are reported on:
I-90 through Big Timber
U.S. 191 toward Harlowton
Livingston and nearby areas
A semi-truck rollover on I-90 eastbound near Missoula has blocked access to a rest area, leading to significant delays. MDT recommends that motorists exercise caution, check for detours, and allow extra time for their journeys.
