Starting this Monday the ACHD is will start working on the widening of Ustick Road between Cole and Maple Grove. I know there was some controversy over this project. But, I’m not sure if this has to do with the whole Ustick road project or just a portion of it. The only place I’d have any objection to the widening would be between Five Mile and Cloverdale and only if it ruins what is left of the old town of Ustick. Yes… there used to be a town of Ustick, Idaho. The only remains are a few old buildings on the south side of Ustick Road.

Either way, on Monday, Qualitree is going to come in and start removing all the trees in the new right of way on the North side of Ustick.
