Kempthorne says creating a bypass through Indian Valley will ease traffic on Idaho 55 and preserve its beauty as a scenic route.

During his State of the State Address to lawmakers Monday, Kempthorne revealed his vision of a four-lane highway stretching from the Canadian border to the Treasure Valley. He called the massive project "Connecting Idaho."

Kempthorne said it is a great opportunity for everyone to invest in our transportation and make driving in Idaho safer.

His goal is to bring the north and south together with a multi-lane highway.

Kempthorne is proposing funding $1.6 billion worth of road construction projects with Garvee bonds.
