Boise’s I-84 traffic jams: Why it’s only getting worse

Every morning, I-84 feels more like a parking lot than a freeway, and it’s not just your imagination—congestion has jumped by a third in the last decade. Commutes between Caldwell and Boise are creeping up, crashes have doubled, and even side roads like Chinden are getting slammed. Despite millions spent on widening and upgrades, population growth is outpacing improvements, and experts say it could take 50% longer to get across the Valley by 2050. What’s your experience with the daily grind? Have you noticed new trouble spots or found any clever ways to beat the rush? #Transportation #BoiseTraffic #I84
