Welcome to the Idaho State Highways Task Force of WikiProject U.S. Roads!

Scope and goals

All state-maintained highways in Idaho, including all Interstate Highways, U.S. Highways and Idaho state-numbered highways, and any other road-related transportation articles of note. The goal is to organize, standardize, and expand the articles on highways in Idaho to be a broad, comprehensive, and recognized resource.

Templates

Infobox

Use {{infobox road}} or {{infobox road junction}} as needed for articles. The state parameters should contain the state's postal abbreviation. The type codes are the same as for the junction template below.

Junction template

Use {{jct}} to create the entries in a junction list section for the article, or the junction list in the infobox. To use, insert {{jct|state=ID|type|number}} into the article. If two to four highways are needed, use {{jct|state=ID|type|first number|type|second number}}. Types can be I for Interstates, US for US Routes or ID for state routes. Further instructions can be found on the documentation page.
