Overnight lane restrictions on Garrity near I-84 interchange begin Sunday night (Nov. 7)
BOISE - Motorists can expect Garrity Boulevard to be reduced to one lane in each direction at night starting Sunday (Nov. 7) near the I-84 Garrity Interchange while crews work under the bridge deck.
The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) advises that lanes will be restricted overnight between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. Two lanes southbound and one lane northbound will be open by the morning commute and during the day.
Overnight restrictions are not expected to occur on Friday or Saturday nights. Lane restrictions are expected to continue through next week until the bridge work is completed. Concrete Placing Co. Inc., of Boise, is the contractor on this $15 million project.
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.
