Lorenzo Bridge traffic switches to westbound lanes

US 20 traffic will be re-routed at the US-20 Lorenzo Bridge in Madison County beginning Wednesday, July 24.

Traffic will be switched to the westbound lanes.

Off and on-ramps of Exit 325 will remain open to traffic, except for the eastbound on-ramp to Rexburg. Motorists will not be able to enter US 20 eastbound, toward Rexburg, from the Exit 325 interchange. Those travelers will instead need to detour through Rigby to the Exit 322 on-ramp or use an alternate route.

“This rehabilitation will entail resurfacing of the bridge deck, replacing the guardrail, improving the bridge approaches and finishing with new pavement,” said ITD Project Manager Eli Robinson.

The project is expected to be completed this fall.

In the meantime, drivers can expect traffic delays for the duration of the project. Reduced speed limits will be in effect and traffic shifted over periodically to single-lane, two-way traffic.
