Application H-2018-0053 FP
Project Name BAINBRIDGE SUBDIVISION NO 8
Project Location
East of North Black Cat and west of North Ten Mile Road, south of US-20/26
milepost 35.96
Project Description Construct a subdivision consisting of 52 residential units and 8 common lots
Applicant Brighton Investments LLC
The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) reviewed the referenced final plat application and has the
following comments:
1. The project does not abut the State highway system.
2. The City is reminded that the US-20/26 corridor is already congested. This project will increase
the number of vehicle trips in the corridor. As the City continues to add additional trips to the
corridor through development, the congestion will worsen until the roadway system is ultimately
overloaded and fails. ITD has no current funding assigned to mitigate traffic congestion in the US-
20/26 corridor in this area.
3. Idaho Code 40-1910 does not allow advertising within the right-of-way of any State highway.
4. IDAPA 39.03.60 rules govern advertising along the State highway system. The applicant may
contact Justin Pond, Program Manager for ITD’s Headquarters Right-of-Way Section at (208) 334-
8832 for more information.
5. ITD does not object to the construction of a subdivision consisting of 52 residential units and 8
common lots as described in the application.
If you have any questions, you may contact Tom Haynes at (208) 334-8944 or me at (208) 332-7190.
