Idaho Transportation Department officials plan to reopen a section of Idaho Highway 21 between Lowman and Stanley on Friday morning that has been closed for a month due to the Wapiti Fire. Plans call for Idaho Transportation Department crews to reopen Idaho Highway 21 at 8 a.

The Idaho Transportation Department plans to reopen State Highway 21 at 8 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 20 after closing down due to nearby wildfires.

The Idaho Transportation Department in late August closed all lanes of Idaho 21 near Grandjean, between milepost 92 by the Warm Springs Airport to milepost 107 by Banner Creek Summit, according to the agency’s website. That area was later expanded to the section between Ten Mile Creek Road and Stanley Lake Road.
