On Monday, the Interstate 90 eastbound exit at Cataldo near milepost 40 will be closed for approximately two weeks. The closure is necessary as crews complete paving work in preparation for an upcoming traffic shift in April.
During this period, traffic will be rerouted east to the Kingston exit at milepost 43. Drivers will then re-enter I-90 westbound to return to the westbound exit at Cataldo. Traffic through the work zone will remain limited to a single lane with a speed limit of 55 miles per hour to ensure safety.
Once the paving is finished, all lanes of traffic will be shifted to the westbound side of the interstate. This change will allow demolition to begin on the eastbound bridge.
In addition, next month will see daytime river closures surrounding the project area. "Full details about these impacts and closures are available on the project website."
Drivers are advised to use the Idaho 511 system for updates on traffic impacts related to this project and other ITD projects across the state.
