Public invited to learn about additional lane planned for eastbound I-84 near Boise

The morning commute traffic backed up on Meridian on-ramp.

The Idaho Transportation Department is hosting an online public meeting to inform the public about the design of an eastbound auxiliary lane on eastbound Interstate 84 between the Meridian Road and Eagle Road interchanges. This additional lane to enter and exit I-84 will reduce congestion between these interchanges, making it safer for drivers to access the freeway.

The online meeting is available from Feb. 13 through Feb. 28 at: https://itdprojects.idaho.gov/pages/i-84-meridian-interchange-to-eagle.

The online meeting provides the public with an opportunity to learn about design details. The project also involves necessary modifications for a two-lane eastbound on-ramp at the Meridian Interchange and a two-lane eastbound off-ramp at the Eagle Interchange. An additional right turn lane will be added to the eastbound off-ramp intersection at Eagle Road.

The comment period for the online meeting closes on Feb. 28.
