Project Description and Purpose

This summer, the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) will rehabilitate the pavement on Idaho Highway 75 (ID-75) in Hailey between Fox Acres Road and Cobblestone Lane.

This phase of construction follows recent upgrades to pedestrian ramps and crossings to meet current Americans with Disabilities (ADA) standards.

ITD has been working with the City of Hailey and the community since 2019, seeking input on construction plans in an effort to minimize impacts to businesses, residents, and visitors.

Construction Plans

This project will provide for a smoother driving surface through downtown Hailey. In the coming months, ITD will rehabilitate the highway, which includes milling the old road surface, and replacing it with new pavement. Improvements will also include new striping and pedestrian crossings.

What to Anticipate During Construction

Work will occur at night to reduce impacts to adjacent businesses and the traveling public. Night work was approved by Hailey City Council in 2019.

Clock icon Construction will occur at night between the hours of 6:30 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. Monday through Friday.
One lane open icon During nighttime work hours, one northbound and one southbound lane will be open to traffic.
Two lanes open icon During the day, two lanes will be open both northbound and southbound.
Rough road icon Drivers should anticipate driving on a temporary gravel surface during construction activities. Crews will use dust abatement methods to manage dust and dirt during construction.
Pedestrian icon To the extent possible, business access will be maintained.
Pedestrian crossing icon Sidewalk access and pedestrian detours will be clearly marked.
No parking icon No parking will be permitted in the work zone. Vehicles left in the work zone will be towed at the owner’s expense.
Noise icon Some work will be noisy, including grinding, milling, and vibratory rolling and movement to compact the roadway. Vibration may cause unsecured items to move or fall. Construction equipment will also use back up alarms.

ITD encourages everyone to slow down and pay attention when traveling in the work zone.

Pavement Milling

Pavement milling removes the full depth of roadway surface so new pavement can be installed.

The milling machines use a large rotating drum to remove and grind the road surface.
