Helena Trench Feasibility Study

The Helena Trench Feasibility Study aims to explore the technical and financial viability of constructing a train trench along Montana Avenue in Helena. This project stems from the need to improve transportation infrastructure by eliminating three grade crossings and enhancing street grid connections. Inspired by the Reno ReTRAC project, the study will assess the potential to lower the tracks at Roberts Street, impacting the west end of the existing yard. The project will focus on determining the feasibility of the trench, estimating costs, and identifying potential funding sources. The study will cover the area from approximately 700 feet west of N. Last Chance Gulch to Hannaford Street. By conducting this study, learners will apply their classroom knowledge in civil engineering, urban planning, and transportation systems to a real-world scenario.
