Repairs begin on South Fork Teton River Bridge in Rexburg

REXBURG, Idaho (KIFI) — The Idaho Transportation Department will begin resurfacing the South Fork Teton River Bridge on State Highway 33 Monday, with repairs expected to last until the end of August.

Repairs will replace the surface of the bridge to extend the life of the bridge. In addition, the sidewalk and walls will undergo minor work.

One lane will be closed in each direction, and drivers will not be able to make left turns within the work zone. Pedestrians will be able to cross the bridge throughout construction and access to nearby businesses will also remain open.
