TRAFFIC ADVISORY
Phase 1 of Linder Road, State Highway 44 to Floating Feather Road Project begins Tuesday
EAGLE — Work will begin Tuesday on the Linder Road, State Highway 44 to Floating Feather Road project.
During the first phase of construction, Linder Road will be closed between Saguaro Drive and Rosslare Court. Only local traffic will be allowed on Linder Road between Floating Feather Road and State Highway 44.
Commuters should use Park Lane to get around the closure. Drivers may also use Palmer Lane. The current closure on Palmer Lane will reopen before Linder Road closes. (see detour map)
Those heading to and from the schools along the corridor should plan to use Floating Feather Road.
This closure is expected to last through spring of 2026 as crews complete bridge work before irrigation season begins.
The work is the first phase of ACHD’s Linder Road, State Highway 44 to Floating Feather Road project. Once complete, the corridor will feature five travel lanes, a new roundabout at Linder and Floating Feather Roads, and new multi-use pathways, among other upgrades.

Galileo STEM Academy's robotics teams competed at the Global Conference for Educational Robotics (GCER) last week in Norman, Oklahoma. Their varsity team placed 2nd in their division following a run-off match. The JV team placed 2nd in their division. The school was also awarded the KISS Award (Keep it simple students) for their robot(s) being simple yet highly effective and consistent in completing targeted tasks. Galileo’s design is not only simple, but also robust and well built. In addition, Galileo’s 4th and 5th grade JBC students completed multiple coding challenges over the five-day conference developing a stronger knowledge of C coding language.

Frontier Elementary second graders learned about properties of materials and matter while constructing buildings out of index cards. What an exciting way to apply classroom learning!!!

Ben is a student at Pepper Ridge Elementary. In 2019, when Ben was in Kindergarten, he was planning a lemonade 🍋 stand to make some money. After a visit to the Humane Society 🐾 that week, he saw that some of the cat 🐱 enclosures didn't have toys and it broke his heart. He decided he would donate whatever money he made to them instead. He raised $220 and stayed true to his word and donated every penny. Due to Covid he took a break in 2020, then resumed in 2021. That year he raised $600. This year during Spring Break, he held his third one. The Idaho Humane Society shared it on their page, then some radio stations picked it up as well. Ben had tons of visitors from all over and he raised $1800, all of which he gladly handed over again. Ben plans on having a lemonade 🍋 stand every Spring now, just in time for "kitten season" when they need supplies the most.
