Eastbound I-84 “loop” on-ramp at Meridian Road closed overnight Sunday, Monday and Tuesday
MERIDIAN – The eastbound Interstate 84 “loop” on-ramp from southbound Meridian Road will be closed overnight Sunday, Monday and Tuesday (March 15-17), the Idaho Transportation Department announced. Closing the ramp at night will allow crews to work on the deck of the I-84 Meridian Interchange bridge.
On all three nights, the loop on-ramp will close at 10 p.m. and reopen by 5 a.m. the following day. During the overnight closures, motorists can still access eastbound I-84 from northbound Meridian Road. Flaggers will direct traffic across the ramp intersection.
The work zone speed limit is 25 mph on Meridian Road and 55 mph on I-84. ITD urges drivers to leave early, slow down and pay attention.
ITD is replacing the I-84, Meridian Interchange in order to accommodate more traffic on Meridian Road and I-84. Construction is expected to be finished late this year.
Concrete Placing Company is the contractor on the $50.8 million project.
