Chinden Boulevard closures

MERIDIAN, Idaho — Drivers used to taking Chinden Boulevard will need to use their patience as construction picks up on a project to widen the road. 

Starting Thursday night, several eastbound lanes of Chinden will be shut down at the Linder Road intersection. The closures are part of work to widen a section of the street.

Eastbound Chinden Boulevard will be reduced to one dedicated left turn lane and one through/right turn lane with flaggers. Drivers headed east should expect "significant delays," according to the Idaho Transportation Department, but westbound traffic will be unaffected.

The closures are expected to continue into the summer. For more information about the construction project, click here.
