Garrity Traffic Alert: overnight lane, ramp closure near interchange will begin at 10 p.m. Thursday (Sept. 24)

BOISE - Motorists should expect restrictions on westbound I-84 and the Garrity westbound off-ramp overnight from 10 p.m. Thursday to 5 a.m. Friday (Sept. 24 and 25). The Idaho Transportation Department is installing a new sign in the area.

On Thursday night (Sept. 24), one lane of westbound I-84 will be closed between the Garrity Interchange and Ten Mile Overpass from 10 p.m. to 1:30 a.m.

On Friday morning (Sept. 25), the westbound Garrity off-ramp will be closed from 1:30 a.m. to 5 a.m. Motorists will be directed to use the Franklin Boulevard exit in Nampa.

The work is part of a project to widen I-84 to three lanes in both directions between the Garrity and Meridian interchanges.

ITD and the Idaho State Police caution motorists to slow down and pay attention when driving in work zones, where increased speeding fines and other penalties apply. Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead and dial 5-1-1 or visit 511.idaho.gov for information on the state highway or interstate system.
