Work scheduled for pipe replacement on Idaho Highway 24 north of Rupert
SHOSHONE---As early as Monday, Mar. 12, daytime traffic on Idaho Highway 24 north of Rupert will be reduced to one lane to allow for the removal and installation of three pipe culverts. This pipe replacement is the initial phase of a larger road rehabilitation project scheduled for later this year.
During the culvert work, a portion of the road shoulder will be removed and rebuilt. Subject to weather conditions, work is expected to be complete in the coming weeks.
Drivers should be prepared for short delays and watch for flaggers during working hours - Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The larger rehab project is expected to begin in August and will include additional pipe work, rock removal, and sign replacement. The general contractor is Western Construction, Inc.
