The Idaho Transportation Department has began work on Interstate 15 and Highway 30 in Southeast Idaho this week.

MCCAMMON — The Idaho Transportation Department will begin work Monday on U.S. Highway 30 east of the Interstate 15 McCammon Interchange to replace the asphalt road surface with concrete. The project will improve pavement conditions and durability, and allow heavy loads and semi-trucks to have improved access to the businesses along the Interstate Oasis.

During construction, motorists should expect single-lane closures and reduced speed limits. Access to the businesses along the construction area will remain open.

Work is scheduled to be completed before the July 4 holiday weekend.
