The Idaho Transportation Department is repairing five bridges along U.S. Highway 95 from New Meadows to Pollock in Adams and Idaho Counties starting Wednesday. Construction on each bridge will last approximately one week, and crews may work on more than one bridge at a time.
The bridges included in this project are the Goose Creek West Bridge, Goose Creek East Bridge, Little Salmon River Bridge, Boulder Creek Bridge and Fall Creek Bridge. View the map to see the exact locations of these bridges. Work will start this week at the Goose Creek West Bridge.
Impacts to traffic will vary by bridge, but overall motorists can expect daytime work with reduced speed limits. US-95 will be reduced to one lane in work zones with flaggers or temporary signals to control traffic.
This work is part of a larger effort to repair bridges throughout southwestern Idaho to extend their service life and reduce maintenance costs. ITD is also preforming repairs on bridges in Canyon County
and has completed work on bridges in Elmore and Ada counties.
Repairs will include:
– Patching and sealing concrete
– Working on expansion joints
– Removing asphalt overlays
– Improving deck drains
– Milling and paving bridge approaches
– Painting steel structures
The Idaho Transportation Department is committed to minimizing disruption during construction while prioritizing the safety of both crews and motorists. Drivers are urged to use extra caution when traveling through active work zones.
