Eagle Road Pavement Repairs

Construction is resuming this spring

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.
