Congressman Ryan Zinke stopped in Sanders County last week to discuss progress on efforts to replace the Noxon bridge.
The county bridge that connects the community to Montana 200 temporarily closed in July after inspections showed two concerning cracks. It reopened a few weeks later with a weight restriction, but engineers determined the bridge needs to be replaced.
Around 50 people attended the gathering in Noxon and Zinke later spoke about his visit to the more than 100-year-old bridge while visiting with constituents at the Plains VFW.
