BOISE — The public is invited to learn more about preliminary design plans for US-20/26 between Middleton Road and Star Road at a meeting hosted by the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD), Thursday, June 15 from 5 p.m. – 7 p.m., at the Star Fire Protection District, 11665 W. State Street, Ste. B, Star, ID.
This project will widen the highway and improve intersections to enhance safety and mobility for all users of the transportation system, including nearby residents, businesses, commuters, and freight carriers.
The meeting will be an open house, with no formal agenda. Members of the project team will be available to answer questions. The public is encouraged to attend and provide comments on the proposed design.
Anyone unable to attend in person, can also participate online between June 16 and June 29 by clicking on the following link: itdprojects.org/projects/chindenwest.
The design of this project is being funded with Transportation Expansion and Congestion Mitigation (TECM) funds as part of the Leading Idaho TECM Program. The program allows ITD to accelerate project timelines to address rapid growth and build critical infrastructure today that would otherwise take many years to fund and build. Funding for the next phase of work will be determined when the project progresses to that stage.
