I-84 lanes from Oregon border to Black Canyon to be resurfaced this spring, summer
BOISE – The lanes of Interstate 84 from the Oregon state line to the Black Canyon Interchange at Exit 13 will be resurfaced late this spring and early summer, the Idaho Transportation Department announced. The work will result in a smoother driving surface for motorists.

In this mill-and-inlay pavement rehabilitation, work on both the eastbound and westbound sides is expected to begin between mid-April and early July and last for approximately three months. Crews will mill out about three inches of pavement in the right lanes and replace it with new asphalt. Both lanes and shoulders will then be overlayed with about two inches of asphalt. The ramps at Exit 3 (Fruitland) and at Exit 9 (New Plymouth) also will be overlayed.
Western Construction, of Boise, is the Apparent Low Bidder on this $9.6 million project. Construction bids were opened on the project Jan. 7.
