WALLACE –– On Thursday, the Shoshone County Commissioners signed a contract agreement between the county and GeoEngineers for the next phase of its Moon Pass project.
In April, a rockslide wiped out a section of the road, delaying its seasonal opening and requiring hundreds of thousands of dollars in work to clear the debris. The road was reopened in early July, but more work is needed to make sure that another slide doesn’t happen.
Shoshone County Public Works Director Jessica Stutzke reviewed the contract with the board, explaining how the upcoming project would progress and how it was being funded.
