Old bridge on U.S. 95 near Cambridge to be replaced this summer
BOISE - The old short-span Creek Bridge on U.S. 95 in Washington County will be replaced this summer in a project approximately seven miles north of Cambridge, the Idaho Transportation Department announced.
The Creek Bridge, at milepost 120.6, is the oldest structure on the state highway system, built in 1918. The bridge is in poor condition. The existing bridge, which is 14 feet in length and 34 feet wide, will be replaced by a pipe culvert with a 72-inch diameter measuring 56 feet in length.

Knife River Construction Northwest, of Boise, is the contractor on this $350,000 project.
A single lane will be maintained through the work zone with a temporary traffic signal.
