Idaho Gov. Brad Little wants $80 million per year to address our congested roads Hayat Norimine, The Idaho Statesman Apr. 4—By 2040, the Treasure Valley is expected to see 3 million vehicle trips a day — a 67% spike from 2018. Commutes from Star to Boise would lengthen by half an hour. A drive from Boise to Caldwell would take 16 more minutes, according to the governor's office. Idaho Gov. Brad Little pointed to anticipated congestion on highway systems as he toured the state last week to make a case for more transportation investments, highlighting the travel delays drivers would see if the state doesn't act soon.
