Bridge Over Boise River Coming | Boise News

A new pedestrian bridge over the Boise River is set to transform how people move through Garden City and Plantation Island, eliminating confusing detours and dangerous street crossings. Funded by a $2.18 million federal grant — pending local matching funds — the project is spearheaded by nonprofit FACTS, aiming to create a safer, direct path for walkers and bikers. With rising foot traffic from new developments like Expo Idaho and a soccer complex, this bridge isn’t just about convenience — it’s a vital link in FACTS’s larger vision: a continuous Greenbelt trail from Lucky Peak Dam to the Snake River. Community support and donations are urgently needed to unlock the full funding and complete this essential connection.
