EAGLE, Idaho — A major redesign of the intersection of Eagle Road and Idaho Highway 44 is scheduled to begin next week.
The Idaho Transportation Department says the innovative design is what’s called a half continuous flow intersection (CFI). Officials says this will improve mobility and safety at one the valley’s busiest intersections.
More than 70,000 vehicles travel through the intersection of two major highways every day.
Across the U.S., CFIs have a proven track record of increased efficiency and safety. This will be the first CFI constructed in Idaho.
