U.S. 95 resurfacing planned late this summer in Idaho, Adams counties
BOISE - Resurfacing is planned late this summer from Smokey Boulder Road to Hazard Creek on a section of U.S. 95 in Idaho and Adams counties, the Idaho Transportation Department announced.
Work on this five-and-a-half mile (milepost 171-176.5) project is expected to begin in July and finish in September.
This work will involve grinding off the top layer of existing pavement and applying an overlay of new asphalt in some areas, and performing a complete "deep repair" on asphalt and base in the more damaged segments. Crews will also repair some drainage in the area, create trench drains and line corroded pipes.

One lane of traffic will remain open, and traffic will be guided by flaggers on this two-lane road.
Valley Paving & Asphalt Inc., of Cottonwood, is the contractor on this $1.8 million project.
