Greenbelt Closure in Ann Morrison Park

A project to rebuild and widen the Greenbelt in Ann Morrison Park is scheduled to begin May 14. Guho Corp. will replace the existing asphalt with a 12-foot concrete pathway from 9th Street to Americana Boulevard. The $247,500 project is funded by the City of Boise. Construction is expected to be completed in late June before the start of the busy summer floating season. Signs will mark pedestrian detours around construction.

Greenbelt Closures Due to Flooding

The Boise River has flooded out several low-lying sections of the greenbelt, including areas on and around campus. Please see the following article for details about areas to avoid due to flooding:
