Flaggers will direct traffic at the Eagle and Franklin intersection in Meridian starting Sunday night
BOISE– Intermittent lane restrictions and flagging will occur next week (Oct. 16-21) at the Eagle and Franklin intersection in Meridian. Crews will begin construction activities to install a new traffic signal at the intersection. Preliminary work on the traffic signal will take place throughout the week.
Lane restrictions and flagging will occur on Sunday from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. and Monday through Thursday between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. The existing traffic signal will be back in operation each day.
Once the existing traffic signal is removed, the new traffic signal will be operation in late October and will accommodate the third northbound lane and a right-turn lane at the intersection.
The traffic signal is part of ITD’s project to widen northbound Eagle Road to three lanes between Franklin Road and Fairview Avenue in an effort to enhance mobility through the corridor.
All work is weather-dependent.
Please remember to slow down, pay attention in construction zones and be aware of the safety of construction workers. Your patience is appreciated as ITD works on these improvements.
