3D modelSome improvements to this area were first identified during the development of an environmental document to plan for the future traffic needs of the region, which were approved in 2010 after multiple open houses.
In 2017, an interim design was developed to realign and widen ID-53 between Ramsey Road and US-95. This design also included the replacement of the bridge over the railroad, the addition of a center turn lane and the extension of bike facilities from Ramsey Road to the trail east of US-95. Additional funding was secured through the GARVEE Program shortly after to design and construct this project.

The path now covers from just north of Garwood to Idaho Highway 54, where it connects with a trail to Farragut State Park.
After a short break, work will begin again this January. This will be the last season of work, with construction of the overpass at Garwood Road as the focus. View the updated construction overview for the second season.
