The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) has released a draft environmental impact statement for the realignment of US 95 between Thorn Creek Road and the southern city limits of Moscow. ITD has chosen E-2 as their preferred alternative, which would take the highway along the base of Paradise Ridge, before meeting up with the current roadbed near the city limits. ITD is holding a public hearing on Wednesday January 23rd from 2:00-8:30pm at the Best Western University Inn, which is located at 1516 Pullman Road in Moscow.
If you cannot attend the meeting, you can submit a public comment at comments@itd.idaho.gov or mail them to Office of Communications, P.O. Box 7129, Boise, ID 83707-1129. The deadline for comments is March 25.
