LEWISTON — Beginning September 14, motorists should expect a new traffic pattern affecting access to the Clearwater River Casino & Lodge at the Aht’Wy Interchange project on U.S. Highway 95.

Motorists can anticipate the following traffic pattern changes:

  • East Entrance: This access point will be closed. A temporary east entrance will be available nearby and closer to the casino. Access to and from the temporary east entrance will be open for both directions of travel on US-95.
  • West Entrance: Drivers heading southbound on US-95 will not be able to access the plaza at the west entrance. However, this entrance will be accessible for travelers on northbound US-95 to and from the plaza.

Travelers can continue to expect single lanes in each direction and the speed limit remains lowered for safety. As always, please be mindful of construction workers working near the roadway.
