Background 

Coinciding with the Boise Police Department’s 2020 Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design Assessment, CCDC completed the 17th Street Reinvestment Study to evaluate and prioritize public infrastructure investment in the 17th Street neighborhood and Shoreline Urban Renewal District. Findings of both studies identified 17th Street as a priority corridor to improve public safety through street improvements and activated neighborhood standards. 

 

Summary 

This project focused on safety and mobility improvements within the public right-of-way on 17th Street providing the City of Boise with infrastructure to better manage on-street parking. The project included the following upgrades: 

  • Extension of sidewalks where gaps existed 
  • New ADA pedestrian ramps 
  • Additional overhead lighting on 17th Street between Shoreline Drive and the east end of 17th Street (cul-de-sac) 

 

This project was completed in August 2024.
