U.S. 12 Business - Missoula


The route of U.S. 12 Business through Downtown Missoula was acknowledged but unmarked in this inset from a 1968 Gousha map.
U.S. 12 Business travels an L-shaped route west from U.S. 12 into Downtown Missoula. The route follows Broadway Street (Business Loop I-90 / old U.S. 10) west from Madison Street to Higgins Avenue south across the Clark Fork river to U.S. 12 (5th & 6th Streets) west of the University of Montana.

U.S. 12 east turns onto South 6th Street toward the University of Montana campus as U.S. 12 Business begins.

An overhead guide sign references the Broadway Street connections to Interstate 90. This sign originally displayed a U.S. 10 shield. It was augmented to include the TO banner and was carbon copied with a new panel by 2012.
