Temporary traffic impacts to section of 17th Street on Sunday
Traffic will intermittently be impacted on a section of 17th Street on Sunday, Feb. 23, as contractors install girders for the new Emerson Bridge.
On 17th Street between South Boulevard and Holmes Avenue, closures of both outside lanes will be implemented throughout the day. Traffic flaggers will temporarily close interior lanes for approximately two minutes intermittently while trucks move into position to unload the new bridge girders.
It’s anticipated that all lanes of traffic will be reopened before Monday, barring unforeseen circumstances. If any schedules change, the City of Idaho Falls will provide additional updates.
We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to ensure safety during this operation.
Please reduce speeds, obey posted traffic control signage, and watch for construction crews throughout the work zone.
