In this State DOT 2-Minute Update, Ron Henke, director of the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT), shares progress on a major infrastructure priority: the four-laning of Highway 85. Thanks to an additional $155 million in funding from the state legislature, NDDOT is working to complete the 80+ mile corridor from Highway 200 to Williston—an area vital to North Dakota’s oil production. The project is designed to improve safety, reduce congestion, and separate slower-moving oil traffic from general motorists along this heavily traveled route through the Badlands and surrounding areas.
