IDAHO FALLS – Traffic across the Pancheri Bridge will be temporarily detoured during the night of Wednesday, Aug. 7, for the ongoing bridge rehabilitation project.
Beginning at 9:30 p.m., contractors will need to detour traffic around the bridge to remove an old girder that spans across the Snake River. Barring unforeseen circumstances, traffic should be able to continue in both directions by the morning of Aug. 8.
Please reduce speeds, obey posted traffic control signage, and watch for construction crews in the work zone.
The project focuses on replacing a deficient girder line, replacing rails along the north side of the bridge, and rehabilitating the girder bearing and deck.
