Overview
In 2025, the Idaho Transportation Department and its construction partner Wadsworth Brothers Construction began reconstruction of Interstate 15 in Bannock County, in and near the city of Inkom. Corridor roadway and bridge improvements include:
-
- Replacing I-15 bridges over the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) tracks and Old Highway 91.
-
- Replacing I-15 bridges over Rapid Creek Road (Main Street).
-
- Replacing I-15 bridges and reconstructing West Interchange.
ITD combined and streamlined the projects, reducing the construction timeline to approximately two years. This approach minimizes disruption to the local community and traveling public and supports efficient use of construction funds.
Traffic impacts include crossovers, reduced speed limits, and single-lane opposing traffic. Motorists should exercise caution while driving through the construction zone.
