BILLINGS - Three months ago, Cabela's Retail Inc. suspended construction of a store in Billings. But now the company is back on track to complete its first sporting goods store in Montana.

Linda Beck is with the Big Sky Economic Development Authority in Billings. She says Foursquare Properties will resume work on infrastructure, such as water and sewer lines, in late June or July. Foursquare, in Carlsbad, Calif., is a development company for Cabela's. When Foursquare finishes ground preparation this fall, Beck says Cabela's will take over the project off Interstate 90 and South Billings Boulevard.

That schedule was confirmed by Brett Kratzer, real estate acquisition manager at Cabela's headquarters in Sidney, Neb.
