Idaho Falls sits at the convergence of I-15 and US-20 on the Snake River Plain — a high-desert corridor where guardrail post installation routinely encounters basalt bedrock at two to three feet depth and winter temperatures regularly drop below -10°F. ITD District 6, headquartered in Rigby fifteen miles north, administers highway safety improvements across Bonneville County including the I-15 corridor carrying heavy freight from the Port of Entry south of Pocatello to the Montana state line.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Snake River Plain around Idaho Falls is underlain by Quaternary basalt flows with thin loess and alluvial cover. Guardrail posts on I-15 and US-20 in this area frequently encounter basalt before reaching required embedment. We use rotary drilling equipment on these contracts rather than attempting driven posts that will fail or deflect on the basalt surface.

Yes. US-20 west of Idaho Falls passes near the INL site boundary. Guardrail work in this area must observe DOE security buffer requirements and coordinate with ITD District 6 on any work windows that affect INL access routes. Our crews undergo background screening and we accommodate the access control protocols associated with work near federal facility corridors.

Idaho Falls averages over 40 inches of snow annually and regularly sees temperatures below -10°F. Guardrail post installation in frozen ground is impractical and ITD does not typically award installation contracts for winter execution in District 6. We schedule Eastern Idaho guardrail work between May and October and plan material delivery to avoid winter transportation disruptions on mountain passes between Boise and Idaho Falls.
