NAMPA – Motorists can expect lane restrictions on State Highway 45 between Deer Flat Road and Junction 78 near Walter’s Ferry while the Idaho Transportation Department applies a protective sealcoat to the roadway. The project will extend the life of the asphalt.
Starting Monday, crews will remove pavement markings, and flaggers will be in place to direct traffic.
Crews will begin work at Deer Flat Road in south Nampa and work their way 12 miles south toward Junction 78. Work is expected to be completed by late July.
Motorists can expect that:
- SH-45 will be reduced to one lane in the work zone. Flaggers and pilot cars will direct traffic.
- Work will take place from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday through Sunday. All lanes will be open outside of working hours.
- Speed limits will be reduced, and 12-foot lane restrictions may be in place.
Questions may be directed to (208) 402-8408 or info@itdsealcoats.org.
