Fish-passage project on Idaho 21 near Lowman to start June 16
BOISE COUNTY - A fish-passage project east of Lowman is expected to begin June 16 and continue through early December, the Idaho Transportation Department announced.
The project includes replacing the existing culvert near milepost 83 (Lowman is at milepost 72) with a short-span bridge, followed by stream rehabilitation.
The road will be reduced to one lane for the duration of the work, controlled at each end by a temporary traffic signal. Crews anticipate working a Monday through Thursday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. schedule.
This project is being funded through the U.S. Forest Service.
Cannon Builders Inc., of Blackfoot, is the contractor on this $1.2 million project.
