Abstract:The multi-volume Historic Survey of Roads in Idaho’s State Highway System provides the development of Idaho’s State Highway System and a history of the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) and its predecessor agencies to serve as a basis for evaluating the National Register of Historic places (National Register) eligibility of roads within the State Highway System. This report, Volume 1: Historic Context, is the first component in the ITD’s effort to evaluate historic highways throughout the state. This report provides a basis for evaluating the historic significance and integrity of individual highways or highway segments throughout Idaho in order to complete National Register eligibility determinations. Information gathered for this report may also be useful for interpretation of highways for public appreciation and to inform Idahoans of the crucial role transportation has played in the grow the and development of the state. Individual sections that describe the physical development of Idaho’s State Highway System and the related important historical themes. This report provides the basis for developing criteria for evaluating the state’s highways based on the standards of the National Register in a companion report titled Volume 2: Application of the National Register of Historic Places Criteria for Evaluation.
