Welcome to the official website of
Highway District No. 4

Our Purpose and Organization

Highway District No. 4 (CHD4) is one of four Highway Districts in Canyon County.  Our Highway District boundaries primarily include the Northeastern area of Canyon County, surrounding Caldwell and Middleton.  Highway District No. 4 was formed in 1981 to maintain public rights-of-way, roads, and bridges in the highway system, within the District's boundaries, excluding state highways and public streets within city limits.

The Highway District is a political subdivision of the State of Idaho and, according to state law, functions like a corporation. It is a special-purpose district and is not part of the state, city or county governments.

Total Miles in District:
326.41

Improved Miles:
323.62

Gravel Miles:
2.79
