Nighttime resurfacing to begin next week on the Long Bridge

SANDPOINT - Starting next week crews will return to the Long Bridge in Sandpoint and begin resurfacing the roadway. The driving surface was ground down earlier this spring to increase traction and make it safer for travel.

Work will occur overnight Monday through Friday, running from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. with an expected completion date in mid-September.

During nighttime construction hours traffic will be reduced to a single, alternating lane with flaggers and pilot cars guiding motorists safely through the work zone. Drivers should expect nighttime delays throughout the month and plan ahead.

As a reminder, drivers are encouraged to slow down through work zones and stay alert behind the wheel for the safety of our crews.

Motorists can utilize the Idaho 511 system for real-time updates about ongoing traffic impacts in the area.
