Lewiston Hill resurfacing slated to begin in late spring or early summer 2015
LEWISTON - The resurfacing of a seven-mile stretch of U.S. 95 on Lewiston Hill will begin between mid-April and mid-May 2015, the Idaho Transportation Department announced. The work is expected to last approximately three months, ending in late summer.
Work on this project will involve a mill-and-inlay at depths ranging from two to five inches, CRABS (Cement Recycled Asphalt Base Stabilization) treatment at the top of Lewiston Hill, repairing soft spots near the Port of Entry at the top of the hill, and replacing median barrier and guardrail on the highway.
Knife River Corp., Boise, is the prime contractor on this $11.5 million project.
