The Local Highway Technical Assistance Council (LHTAC) provides an important linkage between Local Highway Jurisdictions (LHJs) and the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) in the utilization of Federal-aid highway funds available to the LHJs in Idaho. These quarterly progress reports include the status listing of current and upcoming LHTAC projects for each district.
Please see the maps below outlining LHTAC’s expected projects for construction for 2021 and 2022. Please note the projects circled in white are not yet out to bid. LHTAC is anticipating bidding for 2021 projects to follow the same pattern as 2020. Funding will be obligated based upon continuing resolutions from the Federal Government. If additional funding were to be available over the course of the next year, one or several of the projects on the 2022 map could advance into 2021.
