RONAN — Riverside crews will be constructing the sub-base of the new southbound lanes of US Highway 93 (US 93) this week.
Crews will be onsite through Saturday from 6 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Night work is planned for this week through Thursday from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. as conditions allow. Overnight, concrete crews will be working at the intersection of Round Butte Road and US 93, and traffic flaggers will be present.
It is anticipated that there will be fewer traffic delays when traveling through the construction zone going forward; however, flaggers will still be present at the truck turnarounds at the Round Butte Road/Terrace Lake Road and Old US 93/3rd Avenue intersections.
Spring Creek Road Update: Work on the approach to Lake Seed resumed this week. Once the approach is complete, Spring Creek Road at US 93 will be permanently closed. The closure is anticipated to take place the week of June 19.
Glover Road and US 93 Safety Improvements: North of the Ronan-North project, MDT, in partnership with Riverside Contracting, have begun work on a safety project near Pablo on Glover Road, just west of US 93. Pavement preservation work is also underway and extends from just north of Ronan to the north of Pablo, ending at the intersection of US 93 with Minesinger Trail.

Remember the three S’s of work zone safety when traveling through the construction zone: speed, space, and stress. Slow down when approaching work zones and follow posted speed limits. Leave adequate braking room between your vehicle and the one ahead of you. Keep your cool, pay attention, and plan for delays.
