Return of winter weather delays construction on Lapwai Bridges until April
LEWISTON – An unexpected return of winter weather conditions this week will delay the resumption of bridge construction on U.S. 95 south of Lewiston by about a month.
Construction was expected to begin Monday (March 5) on the Lapwai Creek Bridges project about 29 miles south of Lewiston. It has been postponed until April 2.
The project, between mileposts 286 and 290, includes new approach slabs on the first half of the four northern structures, raising the road grade between several of the bridges and constructing the second half of all seven structures.
