Intersection Study
The Bannock Transportation Planning Organization has started a study to determine the current and future operating conditions of key un-signalized intersections within the City of Chubbuck, the City of Pocatello, and Bannock County. The Un-signalized intersection study will analyze the cumulative impact of the region's growth patterns on each of the 34 study intersections over the next twenty-four years. The study will determine which intersections do not meet service standards in 2045. Select any icon to get a description of the intertersection. The form will also allow you to make any specific comments on the project. More instructions on the tool- Comments TimelineComments Timeline

This intersection is very dangerous! We need a light there ASAP.

This is a dangerous intersection. We also need lights over the exchange - with a bike path and walking path - it's dangerous after dark.

It would be good to have an on-demand light for drivers on the south valley connector. It seems most the traffic is still on bannock highway, but the visibility of on-coming traffic from the north is low for drivers turning left/south off the connector.

Adding a center turn bay on Bannock Highway would help with operation and flow along Bannock Highway

This intersection just needs some upgrades. It has poor sight distance, hard to determine speeds from people headed from Pocatello Creek to town, and just skewed odd.

At times the sight distance is poor when turning off of Cole onto Chubbuck Road. The houses on the corner park really close the to the intersection.

Intersection by Maverick should be a right in and right out. Any lefts should be coming to Vista. The left turn bay also needs re-striped at Vista. It looks terrible. Pedestrian access across Center should also be added here as well. As development happens on Vista, maybe a light but, not now.

I’ve see many near mis, and actual accidents at this location due to the terrain and the ON parking lot entrance/exit. This intersection really needs a light or at least a 3(4) way stop.

Both Eastbound lanes of Cedar St get backed up waiting for gaps between the North and South on Jefferson. Anyone trying to turn left onto Jefferson can end up waiting several minutes before it's safe. It becomes even more difficult when there are cars in the Jefferson northbound left turn lane.

Probably one of the most talked about, least safe intersections in this part of town. The light might be hard for uphill traffic and roll backs, but the close calls here with peds and vehicles are frequent.

This intersection is becoming difficult for pedestrians to cross. Vehicles often don't stop for pedestrians and there are often not many gaps in platoons of vehicles during peak traffic.

Turning right onto Main Street from W Young can be difficult due to congestion in the area during peak traffic. Traffic turning left from Custer often complicates this as many vehicles almost immediately change lanes to the right hand lane so that they can eventually turn right at Gould.

On-street parking make it extremely difficult to see oncoming traffic unless one pulls well into the street. A light here (and at other spots), or an expansion of no parking on-street zones, would significantly aid public safety.

should just be on-demand for vehicles traveling on Barton as there is much more consistent traffic on 4th and 5th

2 weeks 4 days agoI heard that a signal is planned for this intersection, but it certainly needs one. I believe that currently, with no signal, this area with four I-15 on/off ramps, two gas stations, a mobile home park, and Constitution park, is one of the more dangerous in Pocatello. Since the Valley Connector was built, there is a near constant stream of traffic and a signal is desperately warranted.

2 weeks 4 days agoTraffic is often backed up considerably at the interchange. I know signalization has been discussed. If it isn't already planned, both offramps need to be signalized to improve safety and congestion.

2 weeks 4 days agoThere needs to be stop lights on 17th at both Center and Clark intersections. Vehicles speed on these roads. Pedestrians and bikers should be able to safely cross without having to detour to 15th Also, there is a SD25 bus stop located on 17th BETWEEN Center and Clark. The students that take the bus have to walk across either one way to catch their bus or they have to walk all the way down to 15th in order to use a crosswalk with stop lights. This was poor planning by the city and SD25.

2 weeks 4 days agoI work on South 5th. The speed limit is 45 so people often go 50, including our kids going to school. The off ramps need ot have signals on thetem to allo wtraffic to flow. Often the I-15 southbound exit wil l back up to close to the freeway. With two gas stations signals would improve flow and safety. Also the speed should be reduced to 35 out to the south valley connector. With two gas stations, people exiting the free to get gas never get up to the 45MPH before they turn into the gas station.

2 weeks 4 days agoThis is a congested and dangerous area when school is in session, especially at the start and end of school. There should either be some sort of crossing person to ensure that traffic is stopped, or a flashing crosswalk area like they have across Olympus by the Wellness Complex.
