Project Facts

   
Project Number: A009(781)
Key Number: 09781
Milepost 467.8 to 469.8


This project consists of constructing safety and access improvements from Westmond Bridge to north of Sagle.
    

Background

   
U.S. 95 is the key north-south link for northern Idaho commerce, transportation and tourism. Rapid growth in Bonner and Kootenai counties have caused traffic volumes to approach the capacity of the highway. The corridor between Garwood and Sagle needs to be widened and realigned in order to safely accommodate projected traffic.
    

Schedule and Funding

   
The 2006 Idaho Legislature authorized GARVEE funding to complete preliminary engineering and environmental studies for this corridor. Environmental clearance for the project is expected in January 2010.

Funding is in place for preliminary and final design to prepare plans for construction of safety improvements. Final design is expected to be completed by May 2010.

The potential for right-of-way acquisition has been identified, and budgets have not yet been allocated.

Construction is programmed to begin in August 2010, with anticipated completion in December 2010.
