New Sandbar Bridge to Connect Boise River Areas | Boise News

A new pedestrian bridge dubbed the “Sandbar Bridge” is set to span the Boise River, linking Bernardine Quinn Park with the Riverside Hotel campus — offering a 12-foot-wide car-free crossing over Quinn’s Pond. Approved conditionally by the Parks Commission, it promises to boost connectivity between Garden City, the College of Western Idaho, and booming nearby developments like apartments and breweries. The Riverside Hospitality Group is funding the project, with local partners helping, and plans call for ramps, stairs, and viewing platforms — pending final Planning and Zoning Commission approval. Groundbreaking is targeted for summer or fall 2027. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
