Canyon County, ID – Drivers traveling through southwest Idaho are facing major delays today after eastbound lanes of Interstate 84 were completely blocked following multiple crashes and slide-offs in Canyon and Ada counties.
According to the Idaho State Police, eastbound I-84 is closed near milepost 62 due to several crashes and vehicles sliding off the roadway. Officials say lanes will remain closed until tow trucks can safely clear the scene and road crews complete treatment of the highway.
Additional incidents have been reported along the corridor. Police confirmed a crash near milepost 38 in Nampa, though no lane blockages were reported at that location. Farther east near milepost 71, multiple slide-offs and crashes were also reported, contributing to hazardous travel conditions.
The Idaho Transportation Department is actively responding with road treatment crews as icy conditions continue to impact the interstate. Authorities are urging drivers to avoid I-84 if travel is not essential.
“If you don’t need to be on I-84 right now, don’t be,” police advised. Drivers who must travel are encouraged to slow down, increase following distance, and give emergency and tow crews plenty of room to work.
Officials warned that conditions can change rapidly and recommend checking Idaho 511 for the latest road status before heading out.
No injuries have been confirmed as of this update. Traffic delays are expected to continue until all vehicles are removed and lanes are reopened.
