Final U.S. 95 Paving Underway

If you drive in neighboring Coeur d'Alene, final pavement work is underway on U.S. 95 from Wyoming Avenue to Idaho 53.

Traffic has been shifted from a divided four-lane road to an undivided two-lane road and rerouted at median crossovers placed at either end of the project.

The southbound lanes are closed for paving for two to three weeks, and two-way traffic placed on the northbound lanes. When completed, traffic will be shifted again to the southbound lanes, and the northbound lanes will be paved.

Once paving is complete, the traffic signal at Lancaster Road will be activated.
