KETCHUM -- The Idaho Transportation Department says crews have started cutting and chipping trees along a portion of State Highway 75 in Ketchum as part of preliminary work for a road-widening project.
The agency tells The Times-News that the preliminary work should be finished Jan. 18 if the weather cooperates.
This spring plans call for work crews to transform about a 3-mile section of the highway into a five-lane road with turning lanes and a new traffic signal at Hospital Drive.
