I must say I'm a little underwhelmed by this. I'm sure it'll turn out ok in the end but I was envisioning trailers a lot bigger and fancier than what this shows.

Work doesn't get done in the trailer, that is for lazy managers!

Never thought I'd be this excited to see a construction trailer. Great to see progress! Hope we get a webcam at some point.

On a big project at my plant there was a trailer for the engineers, one for the electrical guys and one for the general contractor. There may be more trailers to come but this project - although price-wise is about the same, from a complexity standpoint, not even close.

For the people that want picture updates go in and like that page. Yea I know its just work trailers. But I wanted to get you excited about something since we don't have much going on right now.


Rest In peace dad.

Central Excavation has moved in a Komatsu 225 excavator. Should be breaking ground in a week.

Martel construction I also the general contractor for the expansion project for the airport terminal here in missoula. Nothing like having the premier Bozeman based and Bobcat supporting contractor doing these high profile jobs all across Montana, and prominently displaying the name.

The State of Montana is Bobcat country.
missoula....still just 20 miles from Montana.

I'm sure the next time anyone needs a tent city and a whole bunch of sh!tters, missoula contractors will be at the top of the list.

Not our project, but here's a video of Komatsu 225 working. Y'all can use your imagination! Hope that helps. :wink:

If the season does get pushed back to spring (hoping it’s not) is there a chance that phase 1 is complete by the start of a delayed season?

There is really no progress yet to show. The excavator is over there. If you look at that Facebook page i will post new images when stuff is happening. I can look out the window right now and nothing is going on yet.


Rest In peace dad.
