"Our members are generally reporting an uptick in construction activity, with private investment finally improving substantially," Hegreberg says. "Helena, in particular, is benefiting from a growing aerospace manufacturing presence, with two firms building and expanding facilities. Since Helena is the state capital, the area is typically a relatively stable market with public and private construction activity tied to slow, steady growth."
