GARVEE Transportation Program-Boise Airport Kiosk
In an effort to notify travelers at the Boise Airport of ongoing construction activity, Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) and the City of Boise partnered in creating a work zone information kiosk near the baggage claim area. The kiosk features interchangeable panels for photos and project descriptions that are updated to highlight the latest construction activities and project schedules. It includes a 50-inch plasma TV monitor which plays a continous loop of ITD public service announcements and computer animated Vista Interchange SPUI simulation.
The kiosk was launched in June 2009 and has been instrumental in getting information to thousands of travelers regarding improvements to I-84 East.
