STAR, Idaho (CBS2) — The Idaho Transportation Department will shift traffic around the State Highway 16 and State Highway 44 intersection starting Thursday, Aug. 13. On Thursday, Aug. 20, crews will shift traffic at the State Highway 44 and Moyle Avenue intersection.
Work will take place each night between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. with flaggers directing traffic. The speed limit will be reduced during this time. After the shift is completed, motorists can expect:
- Northbound and southbound State Highway 16 traffic will run on the new on and off-ramps.
- The SH-16 and SH-44 intersection will be shifted east to line up with the new ramps.
The State Highway 16 and SH-44 Interchange will provide access from SH-44 to SH-16, while allowing SH-16 to flow freely over SH-44. This interchange is part of the long-term vision for SH-16 and will be finished next year…
