About

About this crossing

Sweetgrass–Coutts is the main port between Alberta and Montana — the point where Canada's Highway 4 becomes Interstate 15 toward Great Falls. It operates year-round and concentrates the prairies' trade — cattle, grain and machinery — along with travelers on the Calgary–Montana corridor. As the area's only 24/7 crossing, its queue mixes semis and cars alike, peaking with farm seasons and holiday travel.
