Kimball Bridge completion delayed until summer 2027

Completion date moves

Construction delays have pushed the expected completion of Caldwell’s Kimball Bridge project to summer 2027. The revised timeline is the central change for residents and travelers tracking the bridge project.

The Idaho Press reported the schedule change. The new target means the project is expected to remain under construction into 2027 rather than being completed earlier.

What the delay means

A later completion date can affect how long the public must plan around construction at the bridge. The project’s new expected completion window is summer 2027.

The available project details do not establish the specific causes of the delays, the length of any traffic impacts or whether the summer 2027 target is tied to a particular month. Those details are separate from the announced change to the expected schedule.

What comes next

The next key development will be any updated project schedule or construction notice from the officials overseeing Kimball Bridge work. Those updates could clarify the remaining work, traffic arrangements and the timing of the final completion.

For now, the project’s expected completion is summer 2027. Residents and drivers should watch for official notices about work activity and travel conditions as construction continues.
