BOISE - Intermittent night-time lane restrictions will continue through Aug. 26 on I-84 in east Boise, the Idaho Transportation Department announced.

 

One east- and westbound lane will be closed in both directions overnight (10 p.m. to 5 a.m. on weeknights, and 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. on weekends) between the Cole and Broadway interchanges.

 

Crews will be preparing the road for a westbound I-84 traffic shift on Aug. 27 and removing old striping near the Cole/Overland Interchange.

 

ITD is widening the interstate to four lanes in each direction between the Cole and Broadway interchanges.
