RESCHEDULED: Repaving next week on I-84 near Blacks Creek to cause closures
Repaving has been rescheduled to start next week due to equipment availability. Drivers should pay attention to road signage or check 511 for exact timing of impacts.
BOISE—This week maintenance workers with the Idaho Transportation Department will resurface part of I-84 between Eisenman Road (Exit 59A) and Blacks Creek Road (Exit 64).
Crews will repave the worst sections of the slow lane heading eastbound. Once repairs begin near Eisenman Road, the eastbound on-ramp and one lane on I-84 will be closed. The ramp closure is expected to last one day, though work will continue on I-84 for up to three days. Workers will time repairs to avoid morning and evening commutes.
Westbound travelers will not be affected. Access to the Blacks Creek Rest Area will remain mostly open, save for a few hours tomorrow.
Travelers are reminded to know before they go and check 511.idaho.gov for traffic impacts.
