MCCAMMON, Idaho (KIFI) — Drivers traveling through McCammon can expect a new traffic pattern this weekend as work continues on the U.S. Highway 30 resurfacing project near the Interstate 15 interchange.

According to the Idaho Transportation Department, traffic will shift onto newly completed westbound lanes Saturday afternoon, allowing crews to begin work on the eastbound side of the highway.

Traffic will remain reduced to one lane in each direction through the construction zone.

The project began in early March and is replacing the existing asphalt roadway with concrete designed to better withstand heavy truck traffic on US-30.

While access to homes and businesses will remain open, drivers should be aware of additional closures and detours.

Old U.S. 91 into downtown McCammon will be closed, with traffic detoured south to Interstate 15B, Jensen Road, Hall Road and East Price Road.

Construction is expected to continue through the end of July.
