Additional Resources
Three projects are underway to enhance water and sewer infrastructure in the Cheney-Spokane Road and Marshall Road area, aiming to improve water transmission capacity and provide service to local parcels.
The projects involve the installation of water and sewer infrastructure along Cheney-Spokane Road and Marshall Road, with the goal of increasing water transmission capacity and providing service to parcels in the area. The project is divided into three phases:
All phases are expected to be completed within a five-month timeframe. However, the timelines are estimates and subject to change due to unforeseen obstacles during construction.
Please note that all schedules are approximate and dependent on weather and unforeseen delays. Contractors are required to provide two business days’ notice to affected homeowners or businesses if their property will be directly impacted by the work.

A water transmission line and sewer line is being installed to accommodate current and future needs.
The section between the Latah Creek Animal Hospital/Retail and Restaurant area to Cedar Rd. is estimated to close Tuesday, June 11. It is estimated to reopen in October, depending on construction progress and weather.
W. Qualchan Dr. to S. Meadow Lane Rd. (Distance 3.5 miles / Approx. 12 minutes)
Eagle Ridge to I-90. (Distance 14.5 miles / Approx. 25 minutes)
The 30-foot wide road will not accommodate a single-lane closure. The excavation trench and excavated material will be 20 feet wide and 15 feet deep, leaving less than a 10-foot wide area for construction workers, heavy equipment, vehicles, and materials. Further, the location of the utilities beneath Cheney-Spokane Rd. are close to the protected wetlands on one side and a railroad on the other. This location prevents a temporary “side road” from being constructed.
Residents are advised to follow our official detour route to Meadow Lane Rd. Meadow Lane will have significant traffic controls in place to increase the safety of this intersection.
A speed reduction from 60 mph to 45 mph for US-195 northbound will be implemented just south of the US-195N/Hatch Rd. intersection.
Residents should follow the official detours to US-195 or I-90. Businesses will remain accessible from the Cheney-Spokane Rd./US-195 Interchange.
We encourage the community to make the extra effort to support local businesses impacted by construction. All businesses will remain accessible from the Cheney-Spokane Road/US-195 interchange.
