SH-55 closed between Florida Ave and Lake Ave this weekend

CALDWELL - The Idaho Transportation Department will close State Highway 55 (Karcher Road) between Florida Avenue and Lake Avenue from Friday at 10 p.m. until Monday at 5 a.m.

This will allow crews to replace an irrigation pipe just east of the SH-55 and Florida Avenue intersection, which must be completed before paving the roadway.

Highway traffic is encouraged to detour around the closure using Interstate 84, State Highway 19 and U.S. 95. To view a map of the closure location and detour visit the project website at itdprojects.idaho.gov/pages/55farmway.

This work is a part of the larger SH-55 project occurring between Farmway Road and Middleton Road to improve safety and mobility along the SH-55 Corridor in Canyon County. Construction is expected to be finished in fall 2027.
