Ustick Road Concept Study, Midland to McDermott
Sponsor: Nampa Highway District
Status: To begin in 2008

Identified in Communities in Motion as one of the major funded corridors. NHD will examine long-term function of the road to determine preferred alignments, setbacks and access management standards, in concert with planned land uses. Major portions of the study include evaluating R-O-W requirement, and intersection signalization options for this commuter corridor.

West Bench Circulation Study
Sponsor: Ada County Highway District
Status: Expected completion to be determined

A traffic study for the West Bench area. The West Bench Circulation Study will evaluate both 3-lane and 5-lane roadway alternatives for Cloverdale Road, Five Mile Road and Maple Grove Road, generally between Chinden and Fairview.

Sponsor: Nampa and Canyon Highway Districts
Status: Ongoing in 2008

Identified in Communities in Motion as a future regional corridor, starting at SH-45/Bowmont Road then west around Lake Lowell, then north to a connection on US-20/26 and possibly to I-84. NHD & CHD will examine long-term function of the road to determine preferred alignments, setbacks and access management standards, in concert with planned land uses. Major portions of the study include identification of alignments around Lake Lowell and determining the additional traffic that may be introduced onto ACHD's Kuna-Mora Corridor at the Canyon/Ada County Line.
