North 8th Street is now a safer, more connected corridor designed for everyone, especially kids traveling to and from school. 🚸

New improvements include raised and protected bike lanes in both directions 🚲, a bike signal at State Street, and two new signalized pedestrian crossings at Washington Street and Franklin Street.

The corridor also features curb extensions, new street trees, and a safer, more comfortable bus stop, along with underground upgrades that expand Boise’s geothermal network.

Through CCDC's Rebuild 8th Street project, these improvements strengthen the connection between the neighborhood and downtown Boise’s urban core.

There’s just over a week left in May in Motion, and the real challenge is clear: can anyone keep up with Ryan? 🚴‍♂️💨

Join the challenge by swapping car keys for bike helmets, walking shoes, and other alternative ways to get around to champion a brighter and greener future for Boise.

Tomorrow is Bike to Work Day!

We are hitting the streets by bike, showing what’s possible when cities invest in dedicated bike paths that make commuting safer, faster, and more connected. These routes help more people choose biking as a real everyday option for getting to work.

Biking is a win all around: it’s climate-friendly, great for exercise, reduces traffic, and makes parking easier at your destination.

🚲 Downtown Boise protected bike routes supporting smoother commutes include:

• 11th Street Bikeway
• Grove Street Pathway
• Pioneer Pathway
• W. Grove Street
• N. 8th Street

Next time you’re headed to work, try biking, you might be surprised how easy the ride is.
