Summary
Boise is set to unveil the Sandbar Bridge—a sleek 12-foot-wide pedestrian and bike path spanning the Boise River, linking the Riverside Hotel to Bernardine Quinn Park. Designed to boost access to restaurants, events, parks, and the new College of Western Idaho campus, the bridge will be funded by a developer and gifted to the city to become part of the public Greenbelt. With environmental safeguards in place to protect riverbanks, native plants, and wildlife like fish and beavers, it promises to enhance riverfront connectivity without disrupting flood patterns. City leaders anticipate smooth permitting, as the route connects already-developed areas, while the mayor of Garden City sees it as a potential economic engine for local businesses. If approved, this bridge will offer a vibrant new way to explore and enjoy the heart of the Boise River Greenbelt.
