Beginning Tuesday, January 7, crews will start installing concrete barriers on eastbound US 60 at the US 87 split, located in north Canyon. This safety project aims to reduce the severity of crashes by preventing vehicles from veering into hazardous fixed objects or difficult terrain.
The project is expected to be completed by spring 2025. Drivers traveling through the area should anticipate changes, including reduced speed limits and possible lane closures, as construction progresses.
Safety First in Work Zones
To ensure the safety of both drivers and construction crews, authorities are urging motorists to exercise caution and reduce speeds when traveling through the work zone. Be mindful of the new traffic patterns and follow posted signs to avoid delays and accidents.
Plan Ahead
Drivers are advised to allow extra time for their commute if closures or slowdowns impact their route. Keep in mind that project timelines and conditions are subject to change due to weather, emergency work, or other unforeseen events.
