Streetlight Replacements
We're currently replacing streetlights throughout the city. During replacement, the streetlight will be offline for a short period. See the list below for streetlights that are currently being replaced or will be replaced soon.
The City of Boise maintains street lights on public streets. Boise's street lighting system consists of a combination of lights owned by the city and lights owned by Idaho Power. We have approximately 10,000 lights in our public system, with an additional 300 new street lights installed each year. These are installed as a requirement for development, part of a street upgrade, or installed under one of the city's annual capital improvement projects.
Local public roads, including streets, sidewalks or traffic signals are managed through the Ada County Highway District (ACHD).
