Idaho Transportation State Highway System Adjustments January 18, 2012 Idaho Transportation
Board Subcommittee on State Highway System Adjustments Chairman Gary Blick and Transportation
Board Chairman Darrell Manning and Member Lee Gagner met at 7:40 AM on Wednesday,
January 18, 2012 at the Idaho Transportation Department, Boise, Idaho. Chief
Engineer (CE) Tom Cole, Deputy Attorney General Larry Allen, Executive
Assistant to the Board Sue Higgins, District 3 Engineer (DE) Dave Jones, and
Planning and Program Management staff member Mary Lockwood were also present. Proposed
Relinquishment of US-95 Spur, Payette, District 3. DE Jones presented the finalized road
closure and maintenance agreement with the City of Payette. The agreement, upon
Board approval, transfers the US-95 Spur in Payette to the City of Payette in
exchange for ITD funding a traffic signal at the US-95 and SH-52 intersection. The
estimated cost of the signal is $200,000. DE Jones reported that the funding
has been secured. CE Cole noted the
agreement has been signed by the City and ITD. He said future agreements will
be changed to incorporate language indicating these agreements will not be final or effective until the Board
approves. Member Gagner made a
motion to approve the referenced road closure and maintenance agreement with
the City of Payette and to submit it to the transportation board for
consideration. Chairman Manning seconded the motion and it passed unopposed. New
Business – SH-69, District 3. DE Jones said he had been asked to explore
the feasibility of transferring SH-69 to Ada County Highway District (ACHD) in
exchange for ITD right-of-way the local agency needs for its 30th
Street Extension project. Staff conducted a rating of the 7.8-mile road, which
resulted in a score of 49. DE Jones
emphasized this was just for the Subcommittee’s information. Consideration is
also being given to the potential relinquishment of SH-44. No contact has been
made with ACHD regarding a potential agreement. CE Cole added that a small
piece of Fairview Avenue is still on ITD’s system and should be relinquished to
ACHD. The meeting
adjourned at 7:50 AM. _________signed____________ Respectfully
