*I-84: South Jerome Interchange to Twin Falls Interchange
County: Jerome/Twin Falls
Project: Widen Interstate 84 (I-84) between the South Jerome Interchange (Exit 168) and the Twin Falls Interchange (Exit 173) to increase traffic capacity and improve safety.
*This projected is funded with Transportation Expansion and Congestion Mitigation (TECM) funds as part of the Leading Idaho TECM Program. The program allows ITD to accelerate project timelines to address rapid growth and build critical infrastructure that would otherwise take many years to finance and build.
Impact: Traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction at night with occasional daytime lane restrictions as necessary. Rolling closures will occur this spring/summer due to rock blasting in the median.
Started: April 2023
Expected Completion: Fall 2025
US-93: Perrine Bridge Repair
County: Twin Falls
Project: Planned maintenance to ensure bridge stays structurally sound. Maintenance repairs include bolt replacement, sidewalk repairs, conduit, and baluster repairs.
Impact: Intermittent lane closures are expected to accomplish the work and traffic delays across the bridge are to be expected during those times. ITD is implementing new mitigation efforts specifically designed to reduce traffic congestion. Daily traffic updates will be posted, and motorists are encouraged to plan ahead and sign up to receive up-to-date traffic notices directly by phone/email/text. Dial 5-1-1 or visit 511.idaho.gov to receive traffic updates on the state highway or interstate system.
Start: May 2023
Expected Completion: Spring 2024
I-84 & SH-25: Bridge Repair West Jerome
County: Jerome
Project: This project involves repairs to the concrete bridge deck, longitudinal bridge joint and transverse bridge joints, as well as various other bridge surfaces and approaches.
Impact: Traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction on State Highway 25 (SH-25) with intermittent lane closures on I-84.
Started: March 2023
Expected Completion: Summer 2023
I-84 & SH-50: Kimberly Interchange
County: Cassia
Project: Construction of a new diamond interchange including a new overpass bridge to improve the overall safety and functionality of the interchange. The design will add turn lanes and signals at the existing ramps. The design will also provide pedestrian and bicycle facilities within the project limits including a sidewalk across the bridge.
Impact: The first stage will consist of building temporary on and off-ramps at I-84 so traffic can be diverted onto the temporary ramps during construction of the permanent ramps. Traffic will then be reduced to two lanes across the bridge structure during demolition and construction of the other half. Lanes will be narrowed to 11-12’ width on State Highway (SH-50). Traffic will be guided through the work zones using barrels and flaggers. Access to the on and off-ramps and the Travelers Oasis will remain open. There will be frequent changes to the traffic pattern so please remain vigilant. During demolition of the bridge, traffic on I-84 will shift back and forth using crossovers and reduced to one lane each direction and reduced speeds will be in effect.
Started: April 2023
Expected Completion: Summer 2024
I-84: Kasota Interchange to Burley Interchange
County: Cassia
Project: Westbound construction involves milling off existing roadway surface and replacing with new concrete. Eastbound construction starts 2024.
Impact: Westbound traffic will be crossed over to the eastbound lanes while the westbound lanes are closed for construction. Traffic will be reduced to a single lane in each direction with reduced speeds.
Started: April 2023
Expected Completion: Westbound Spring-Summer 2023
I-84: Declo Port of Entry (POE) Eastbound
County: Cassia
Project: Construct a new eastbound POE facility.
Impact: Most construction of the new facility will occur away from traffic with minor impacts to motorists with shoulder and single lane closures when the on and off-ramps are tied into the interstate. Existing eastbound Cotterel POE will be demolished once new POE is completed.
Started: Spring 2022
Expected Completion: Fall 2024
SH-46: Big Wood River Bridge
County: Gooding
Project: Replace Big Wood River Bridge north of Gooding
Impact: Traffic will be driving on a gravel surface on the north half of the project until paving can be completed. Reduced speeds are in effect and flaggers will be used to direct traffic through the work zone during working hours.
Started: April 2023
Expected Completion: June 2023
Intersection East 2000 South: Gooding
County: Gooding
Project: Widen State Highway (SH-46) and add a left turn lane in each direction.
Impact: Single lane closures and reduced speeds with flaggers during construction.
Start: June 2023
Expected Completion: Late Summer 2023
US-93 & I-84 Interchange Ramps
County: Jerome
Project: This project involves rehabilitation of the roadway with a mill-and-overlay of eastbound ramps and reconstruction of the westbound ramps.
Impact: Lane reductions will be in place and some intermittent closures of the 1-84 on- and off-ramps will occur. Closures are expected at night.
Start: Summer 2023
Expected Completion: Late Fall 2023
District 4 Seal Coat Pavement Preservation Projects
1. I-84 (milepost 184.34-194.2)
2. US-93: North and Southbound (milepost 57.47 – 59.5)
3. US-93: North and Southbound (milepost 68.83-71.57)
4. US-93: Marley Road to Jim Byrne Slough (milepost 117.5-182.7)
5. US-30 (milepost 253.22-256.97)
6. SH-75: Bellevue to Hailey (milepost 115.6-117.3)
Project: Seal coat preservation begins by applying a thin layer of asphalt/oil and then a cover coat of gravel on the current roadway to seal road cracks, thereby preserving the existing highway surface.
Impact: Few impacts to traffic are anticipated. Traffic may be reduced to a single lane with reduced speeds.
Start: Early Summer
Expected Completion: Late Summer
