Downtown Boise is set for a slew of major road improvement projects this summer. The Ada County Highway District announced four projects along State Street earlier this year and a fifth project on 9th Street between State and Bannock streets.

The projects will address a number of issues, such as upgrades to pedestrian ramps and the addition of green stormwater treatment facilities. Benefits for those behind the wheel will include the replacement of aging roadways and traffic signal work.

But the Treasure Valley is a big place — 11,738 square miles to be exact — which means there are likely roads in the area that could still use some work.

The Idaho Statesman wants to hear from you: Which roads in the Treasure Valley need improvements? And are there any streets that have improved that you enjoy driving down?
