Weather delays to slow traffic through
winter
|
October 11, 2013 |
The traffic in a five-mile section of U.S. 95
from Athol to south Granite will remain on the
southbound lanes this winter as part of the
Garwood to Sagle reconstruction, the Idaho
Transportation Department announced.
Unfavorable weather conditions this fall have
delayed paving of the northbound lanes.
Access on the east side of U.S. 95 will be
maintained through the winter.
The speed limit will remain 45 miles per hour.
Additional signing and delineation will be
installed prior to this winter's shutdown of the
project, which will then resume in the spring.
The project is expected to be completed in the
fall of 2014.
Scarsella Brothers of Kent, Washington, is the
contractor on this $21 million project. |
