style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana'> - The Idaho Transportation
Department will hold a series of public meetings for five corridor studies that
are in progress across the department's District 2. <br>
<br>
The purpose of the studies is to understand corridor conditions and needs and
identify priority improvements to meet corridor and user needs for the next 10
years. The final recommendations from the studies will be used by the
transportation department to prioritize funding to implement the improvement
projects. Corridors being studied include segments of U.S. 95 from the Adams
County line north to the Goff Bridge north of Riggins, U.S. 95 from the Goff
Bridge north to the Benewah County line north of Potlatch, U.S. 12 from the
Washington state line east to the Clearwater National Forest boundary east of
Kooskia, Idaho 8 from the Washington state line east to Troy, and 14 narrow and
low volume roadways in the district. <br>
<br>
The purpose of the meetings is to gather public input regarding the current and
future needs of these corridors over the next ten years. Anyone interested in
the corridors may attend between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. according to the following
schedule. <br>

<br>
At the meetings, transportation department representatives and other study team
members will informally present information on existing corridor conditions,
traffic and accident volumes, environmental conditions, highlights of input
already gathered and some possible projects. Common issues already identified
include unsafe intersections, access control, insufficient lane capacity and
passing lane length, rockfall, congestion, drainage and wetland impacts,
limited sight distance, snow and ice removal, recreational access and wildlife
crashes. <br>
<br>
Input received from these open houses will be added to input already received
and will be used to help develop the list of draft recommended improvements
which will be presented for public comment at a second round of open house
events later this summer. <br>
<br>
