Lewiston Hill, U. S. Highway 95, Project F-4114(18), Idaho
The proposed project involves the relocation of U.S. 95 over Lewiston Hill, north of the City of Lewiston in Nez Perce County, Idaho. U.S. Highway 95 is a major transportation corridor, and therefore improvements of the hazardous segments within the proposed project area would be of local, State and Interstate significance. The Ridge Plan would begin at the junction of U.S. 95 and U.S. 12 in Lewiston, and would extend northerly over the Lewiston Hill to a junction with existing U.S. 95 approximately 0.4 mile east of the Washington-Idaho State Line. Because of the steep topography and two thousand foot high canyons and draws over the Lewiston Hill, extensive cut and fill construction would be required through this section of the improvement. Land use in the area is predominantly that of grazing with some agriculture. The impact of the project on private property would not be extensive. One small business and a farm improvement site would be relocated. Some wildlife habitat would be required for the highway. Since the predominant wildlife species are birds, movement would not be affected significantly. There are no fisheries in the area.
