Project Facts

Key Number: 9979

Project Description

A project to upgrade the rest area on U.S. 95 at Midvale Hill in Washington County is under way. The rest area is now closed to the public.

This project will rehabilitate the existing rest area - built in 1987 - and caretaker facilities, create additional truck parking, and include other repairs. The rest room building is being completely reconstructed.

The rest area will be closed during this project, and signs will be posted in Cambridge and Weiser to announce the closure. No temporary facilities are planned during this work. The project is expected to finish by August. The foundation for the new building is done, and three-quarter inch aggregate has been placed for the new parking lot. Construction of the foundations for the new restroom building, volunteer enclosure, storage building, and shade structure also continue.

WF Construction & Sales LLC of Meridian is the contractor on this $1.4 million project.

Construction Schedule

The project is expected to finish in October.
