Seltice Way construction continues through August in Post Falls

Construction on Seltice Way in Post Falls is continuing through the summer as the city carries out a rehabilitation and pipeline project along a major North Idaho corridor. The work combines underground utility construction with roadway and transportation improvements.

Westbound lanes are expected to be affected through August. The project is expected to wrap up by late August 2026, making the construction timeline important for drivers, pedestrians and nearby businesses that use or operate along the corridor.

What Post Falls is building

The City of Post Falls says the project includes new sewer infrastructure and reclaimed-water infrastructure. Stormwater improvements are also part of the work, adding another utility component to the corridor construction.

The project extends beyond pipes and drainage. Its scope includes rehabilitation of the Seltice Way roadway, upgrades to traffic signals and enhancements to pedestrian facilities.

That combination means multiple parts of the corridor are being addressed in one project. Utility installation is taking place alongside work intended to improve the roadway, traffic-control equipment and facilities for people walking in the area.

Traffic impacts through August

Westbound-lane impacts are expected to continue through August while construction proceeds. The project does not mean that all Seltice Way traffic is closed, but westbound travel is subject to temporary changes during the work.

For drivers, the affected westbound lanes are the clearest day-to-day effect of the project. Pedestrians may also encounter temporary changes around the corridor’s pedestrian facilities as those improvements are completed.

Nearby businesses are also located alongside a project that changes how people move through the area. The construction affects a heavily used corridor in Post Falls, so the temporary lane impacts extend beyond the work zone itself to people traveling through the city and accessing nearby destinations.

Expected completion

The current project timeline calls for work to wrap up by late August 2026. That date is an expected completion target rather than an announcement that construction is finished.

Until the project is complete, drivers using Seltice Way should expect ongoing construction activity and westbound-lane impacts through August. The city’s project includes sewer, reclaimed-water and stormwater work as well as roadway, signal and pedestrian improvements, with the overall goal of rebuilding the corridor while those infrastructure upgrades are made.
