Once the Boyer crossing is completed, work will begin on Division, with a detour to Boyer. Access to businesses in the area will remain open at all times. The contractor is Interstate Asphalt and Concrete of Coeur d'Alene. Work will be completed by mid-September. Work will be done during the day because seal coating needs to be done while air temperature is warm.
Motorists can expect some delays along the project.
Flaggers will guide traffic through the work zone. The speed limit will be reduced to 35 mph to increase safety for motorists. Seal coating involved placing a thin layer of liquid asphalt and crushed rock over the pavement. This process keeps water out of cracks in the road s surface, preventing damage when water freezes and expands. Seal coating also prevents erosion to the road s surface and improves vehicle traction.
