I-84 lane closures
Intermittent lane closures will occur on I-84 between Jerome and Twin Falls through the end of construction in 2026. Motorists are encouraged to plan their route in advance by using 511.idaho.gov.
Overview
Major milestone – Week of March 9
Crews plan to open the newly completed third lane of I-84 between the South Jerome and Twin Falls interchanges (exits 168 and 173) the week of March 9!
All week, motorists can expect lane closures on I-84. Work is weather-dependent and may be delayed due to conditions.
Additional I-84 work near the Twin Falls Interchange
Crews will complete additional work that will require intermittent lane and ramp closures on I-84 near the Twin Falls Interchange through late 2026. Beginning the week of March 9, crews will:
- Replace aging asphalt on I-84 with new concrete.
- Re-stripe I-84 to tie the new third lane in with the loop westbound on-ramp.

Frequently Asked Questions
ITD repaved I-84 between Exit 168 and Exit 173 in 2019 and 2020. This work was to rebuild and strengthen existing pavement. The repaving of I-84 was part of regularly scheduled maintenance work on I-84.
Construction began in April 2023 and is anticipated to be completed in 2026.
The bridges need to be replaced to accommodate the additional lanes on I-84. The bridges will also be raised to provide more vertical clearance for vehicles on E 400 South Road.
ITD will be utilizing as much of the new pavement as possible in the expansion of I-84.
Improvements to interchanges will not be included in this project. Improvements being made to the South Jerome Interchange are part of a separate project. Plans for the two projects will be coordinated.
