SH-162 Flood Repair

This work is being done to fix flood damage occurred along SH-162 during flooding in April of 2024.


Overview

Resurfacing operations are slated to start on portions of U.S. Highway 95, Washington Street and State Highway 8 in Moscow.

Background

ITD is permanently repairing structural damage to the embankment of SH-162 caused from flooding.  These repairs will protect the roadway embankment from future flood damage and prevent large scale failure of the roadway that would cause long term closures.  Repairs will also repair large drop-offs along the edge of the roadway and make this corridor safer for the traveling public.

An excavator is clearing SH-162 after the major floods in 2024.
Rock armoring near SH-162 to protect the roadway.

Construction

A portion of the riprap was completed in January of 2025.  Work on culvert replacements, plantings and additional riprap installation are slated to begin in 2026. It will take a few months to complete the work.

Cost: This project is estimated to cost $1,352,184.00
