Gowen Road to close nightly amid I-84 repairs, transportation department says
The Idaho Transportation Department plans to close Boise’s Gowen Road every night starting Friday, part of a project to repair a bridge on Interstate 84.
The closures aim to improve traffic flow while eastbound lanes of I-84 are closed at the Gowen Interchange for repairs, according to a Friday news release.
The road will be closed Saturdays and Sundays from 7 p.m. until 7 a.m., and weeknights from 7 p.m. until 5 a.m. The department did not provide an end date for the closures.
Workers will repair bumps in the roadway caused by settling and rutting at the beginning and end of the bridge, the department said.
