Eagle Road Pavement Repairs

The pavement on Eagle Road (State Highway 55) between I-84 and State Highway 44 is deteriorating, resulting in shallow potholes throughout the corridor.

ITD will finish resurfacing the road in 2023. The rehabilitation project will involve removing the old, damaged pavement and placing new asphalt to provide a smooth driving surface.

Construction update: September 18

All major repaving work on Eagle Road has been completed.

Crews are continuing work on final clean-up activities. Some intermittent single lane closures and flagging at intersections will occur along Eagle Road between Franklin Road and SH-44.

ITD thanks motorists, businesses and residents for their patience during this project.

Season 2 Repaving

After pausing for a winter break, the Idaho Transportation Department resumed repaving work in spring 2023. Work on Eagle Road required nightly closures and detours (see below for more info). The project required two seasons of construction and all major work was complete in early August 2023.

Eagle Road Detours

Work on the remaining sections of Eagle Road will require overnight detours.

  • During work between Chinden Blvd. and Franklin Road, Eagle Road will be closed at night and traffic will be detoured to Cloverdale Road or Locust Grove Road.
  • During work between State Highway 44 and Chinden Blvd., Eagle Road will be reduced to one lane in each direction.

Intersection Work

ITD will be repaving the intersections at McMillan, Ustick and Fairview. This work will require overnight closures and detours to either Locust Grove or Cloverdale Road.
