Sand Creek Byway The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) proposes to construct 2.1 miles of a new alignment connecting U.S. 95, from the northern end of the Long Bridge, directly to Idaho 200 and U.S. 95 north of Sandpoint. The project includes six bridges, 24 retaining walls, and a pedestrian/bike pathway. It has, however, been a subject of controversey for some time. Please
see the North
Idaho Community Assistance Network (N.I.C.A.N.) or Idaho
Transportation Department websites for more information. Though the
Lakes Commission has not taken a stance on the issue, it is an important
topic in our community. DEQ
