Eagle Road (Idaho Highway 55) microseal work nearly complete – Bridge work begins late August
BOISE – The Eagle Road (Idaho Highway 55) microseal project will be substantially complete this week, ahead of schedule. Preservation work on bridges over the Boise River and Interstate 84 is scheduled to begin late August.
All work will protect and preserve pavement life and provide improved vehicle traction. Bridge work over the Boise River is currently scheduled through early September. I-84 bridge work is scheduled for early to mid-September. Work schedules are weather-dependent.
Traffic on the bridges will be reduced to one lane in each direction with flagger control and periodic delays. Minimal noise and light impacts are also anticipated in the work zone.
The microseal night work began late July at Idaho Highway 44, moving south to Interstate 84.
Geneva Rock is the contractor on the microseal. Truesdell Corporation is the contractor on the bridge work.
Similar bridge preservation projects are also occurring this month on Idaho Highway 16 over the Boise River and the outbound Connector (I-184) to eastbound I-84 WYE flyover and the I-84 Maple Grove Road overpass in early September.
