US-95 resurfacing from Payette to Weiser begins second phase of construction next week
BOISE – Phase 1 of pavement restoration on 12 miles of US-95, from the Payette north city limit to the Weiser River Bridge, wrapped up last week.
Crews will return to complete the second phase beginning the week of April 30. Completion is anticipated in mid-May.
The project will extend the life of the highway and provide a smoother ride.
During Phase 2, traffic will again be reduced to one lane with a pilot car. Motorists should anticipate delays of up to 30 minutes.
Construction is scheduled Monday-Friday, 24 hours a day. Night work is anticipated. Saturday work is permitted, although not anticipated. During weekends, traffic will return to normal conditions with reduced speeds.
Area businesses and residents may experience construction-related noise and lights.
Western Construction is the contractor on this $6.1 million project. For up-to-date construction information, visit 511.idaho.gov.
