Highway 55 runs through the middle of this small town between Boise and Cascade. The Highway changes from 4 lanes to 2 in the city limits with a posted speed of 35 mph, THEN in the middle of town there is a school speed limit sign with a blinker that slows all traffic to 25 mph. There is no time shown for this speed and the blinker is always on, day and night, weekdays and weekends. State law has been changed to use school zones only "when children are present" and this is not the case in Horseshoebend.
