The Idaho Transportation Department will close ramps at the Interstate 90 and Highway 41 interchange in Kootenai County beginning Monday night to complete final striping on the roadway. Commuters and travelers should plan for overnight disruptions through Wednesday as crews finalize the project.
Closures will run from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. each night, with different ramps affected on separate evenings. Monday night, both the eastbound off-ramp and westbound off-ramp will be closed. Tuesday brings the most extensive work: the westbound on-ramp will be closed, and Highway 41 itself will be shut down from Seltice Way to the area beneath the interstate. Wednesday night, the eastbound on-ramp will be closed to allow crews to complete striping operations.
Travel Planning for Kootenai County Commuters
Drivers using the I-90 and Highway 41 corridor should allow extra time for their commutes during the early morning and evening hours. Since closures occur overnight, most daytime traffic should flow normally, but those traveling late at night or very early in the morning may face delays or need to seek alternate routes.
The interchange serves as a critical connection in Kootenai County’s transportation network, linking communities from Coeur d’Alene to Post Falls and beyond. The project represents part of ongoing road construction efforts in North Idaho aimed at improving regional infrastructure.
What Comes Next
Once the nighttime work concludes Wednesday, the ramps and Highway 41 should return to normal operations. Drivers who frequently use this interchange are encouraged to check ITD updates for any schedule changes or extensions if weather or other factors impact the final striping work.
