Project overview

ITD is replacing deteriorated pavement on several highways in Boise:

Broadway Avenue (US-20) between I-84 and University Drive
The River Street exit from the I-184 Connector
Glenwood Street (SH-44) between Chinden Boulevard and State Street
Chinden Boulevard (SH-44) between Cloverdale Road and Eagle Road

What to expect during construction

ITD will repave one highway at a time. Work on Broadway Avenue will begin first.

In most locations, crews will work overnight from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. On Sundays, work will begin at 7 p.m. On Chinden Boulevard, nighttime hours will begin and end one hour earlier.

During these times:

Lanes and speed limits will be reduced in the work zone.
Flaggers will direct traffic at intersections.
Business access will be open.
Some work will be noisy.
The Federal Way ramps will be closed for several nights in May.
The River Street exit from the I-184 Connector will be closed for several nights later this summer.

The top layer of pavement will be milled off and replaced. The milled road surface will be bumpy until it is replaced. Please drive or cycle with caution.

Initial work area: Broadway Avenue

Construction on Broadway Avenue will begin May 21. Work hours will be from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. On Sundays, work will begin at 7 p.m.

Crews will start at I-84 and work their way north toward University Drive.
The Federal Way ramps will be closed for several nights starting May 21.
The majority of work on Broadway is expected to be completed in late June. Additional work will be necessary at the intersection of Broadway Avenue and Boise Avenue. This area was damaged by a water main failure in December.
To reduce the risk of future pavement damage from watering, the City of Boise and ITD have decided to replace grassy areas in the median with rock. Existing trees will remain.

Future work areas

Work on Glenwood Street, Chinden Boulevard and the River Street exit will be scheduled later this summer.
