About this listen

U.S. Highway 95 is more than a roadway—it’s a shared journey. From Sandpoint to the Canadian border, it carries the daily stories of families, workers, and neighbors simply trying to get where they’re going and return home safely.

In this episode of Almost Paradise in North Idaho, we share conversations with Idaho Transportation Department officials, Idaho State Patrol leaders and troopers, and the Boundary County Sheriff, recorded at the recent Highway 95 Corridor Safety Workshop in Bonners Ferry. They discuss challenges, plans, and the realities of keeping a vital rural highway safe.

Running through every conversation is a quiet wisdom: “The prudent see danger and take refuge.” Slowing down, staying alert, and driving defensively are small choices that can protect precious lives.

This episode invites us to see driving not just as a task, but as stewardship—of our own lives and of one another. When we watch the road and watch out for each other, we honor the value of every mile and every soul traveling it.
