As a Rural Major Collector, classified as a T4 freight haul route, Almota Road provides farm to market transport, leading to a port on the Snake River.
The existing road was narrow with no shoulders, deteriorating pavement and poor site distance on vertical and horizontal curves. These poor features resulted in safety conflicts for trucks and cars using the road.
The RAP funded improvement project widened the road from 24 feet to 28 feet, improved drainage, and enhanced safety by smoothing out hazardous curves. The road was resufaced and guardrail was added at key locations.
