For the week of June 11 - 17, 2003
‘Open house’
set Tuesday
The Idaho Transportation Department and its Utah-based consultant, Parsons Brinckerhoff, will conduct a "storefront office" meeting Tuesday, June 17, to take public comment on the proposed expansion of state Highway 75 from Timmerman Junction to Ketchum.
The event will be held from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Blaine County Senior Center, 721 Third Ave. South, in Hailey.
While no formal presentation will be made, officials will answer questions about the proposed project and will take comments from the public for future consideration.
PB and ITD representatives will post renderings of two competing proposals to expand the 27-mile stretch of highway, as well as an analysis of forecasted traffic impacts for the two options. They will also present a tentative plan for constructing either of the two proposals, should one be approved by the Federal Highway Administration.
For more information on the project, interested parties can visit www.sh-75.com.
The Idaho Mountain Express is distributed free to residents and guests throughout the Sun Valley, Idaho resort area community. Subscribers to the Idaho Mountain Express will read these stories and others in this week's issue.
