TWIN FALLS, Idaho (KLIX)-A new third major crossing across the Snake River Canyon in the Magic Valley became more of a reality Thursday with the signing of a joint agreement between entities in Jerome and Twin Falls county.
Confidence and excitement could be heard in the voices of the dignitaries at the special signing of the Third Crossing Joint Powers Agreement Thursday afternoon near the Perrine Bridge. For many, it is only a matter of time before another structure spans the Snake River Canyon. Members of the Grater Twin Falls Area Transportation Committee (GTFATC), Jerome County Commissioners, Jerome Highway District, Twin Falls County Commissioners, and the Filer Highway District entered into the agreement to evaluate another bridge.
