Warm Springs Grill + Golf Greenbelt Impacts

The Warm Springs Grill + Golf facility is under construction at Warm Springs Golf Course. The Boise River Greenbelt path along the north side of the Boise River that passes through the golf course is expected to remain open during construction. However, users should be aware of golf carts crossing the Greenbelt as well as heavy equipment working in the area.

Please slow down when traveling along the construction zone and pay attention to all posted signs, including stop signs at marked crossings, for your own safety. Temporary detours and re-routes near the construction site are expected as this project is built-out.

We will ensure the necessary alerts are provided and signage is posted to communicate temporary re-routes as the project progresses. This may also require cyclists to dismount and walk their bicycle through the area.

Thank you for your attention and understanding as we keep the safety of pedestrians, cyclists and golfers top of mind throughout the project.
