The full story
Bingham County commissioners voted Nov. 6 to repeal the county'9s Approach Spacing Standards and amend the Road Standards Manual, citing citizen concerns and updated engineering language. The adopted language sets a 60-foot minimum spacing between approaches (with specified exceptions), limits approach width at the right-of-way to 40 feet, and caps the grade connecting an approach to the roadway at 3% for the first 30 feet.
