01 Route overview

Interstate 84 is two separate roads with one number. The western I-84 runs from I-5 in Portland, Oregon, through Boise, Idaho, to I-80 near Echo, Utah. The eastern I-84 runs from I-81 in Dunmore, Pennsylvania, next to Scranton, through New York and Connecticut to I-90, the Massachusetts Turnpike, at Sturbridge, Massachusetts. The FHWA route log (routes as designated on December 31, 2025) gives the western road 733.06 miles of its own: 375.68 in Oregon, 275.83 in Idaho and 81.55 in Utah. It also lists 35.98 miles that I-84 shares with I-15 in northern Utah, between Tremonton and Ogden, so the drive from Portland to Echo is about 769 miles. The eastern road is 232.40 miles: 54.88 in Pennsylvania, 71.41 in New York, 97.90 in Connecticut and 8.21 in Massachusetts.

For a truck the hard part is eastern Oregon. Between Pendleton and La Grande the road crosses the Blue Mountains at Deadman Pass (3,615 ft) and Blue Mountain Summit (4,193 ft). The west side of Deadman Pass is Cabbage Hill, which ODOT calls "one of the most hazardous stretches of road along westbound Interstate 84": a downgrade of about 10 miles, from milepost 227 to 217, with a double hairpin at 6 percent. The brake check area is at the weigh station at milepost 227, and ODOT's warning signs give recommended speeds by weight, down to 18 mph for a 5-axle truck at 75,000 to 80,000 lb.

Weather is the other problem in Oregon. ODOT's Cabbage Hill brochure says fog, snow and black ice are common there from October to April. In the Columbia River Gorge, where I-84 runs on the Oregon side, an ice storm closed I-84 between Troutdale (milepost 17) and Hood River (milepost 64) for nearly 31 hours in January 2024, and fires closed it between Hood River and The Dalles in June 2025 (ODOT). When Oregon posts chain signs, every vehicle towing or rated over 10,000 lb GVW must use chains. Traction tires count only for lighter vehicles that are not towing.

Truck rules change along the way. Oregon's statute sets 55 mph for trucks over 10,000 lb GVWR unless another speed is posted, and ODOT has posted 60 mph for trucks from Troutdale to The Dalles since late 2017. From the eastern city limit of The Dalles to Idaho the truck limit is 65 mph (ORS 811.111). Idaho gives trucks with five or more axles the same interstate limit as lighter vehicles, 75 mph unless posted otherwise (Idaho Code 49-654). At milepost 222, I-86 splits off toward Pocatello and I-84 turns south to Utah. The one toll on either road is the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge over the Hudson in New York, collected eastbound only: as of October 2026 a 5-axle truck pays $15.25 with E-ZPass or $20.00 by mail (New York State Bridge Authority). In Connecticut, CTDOT is switching I-84 from sequential to mileage exit numbers, so old exit 51 for I-91 North in Hartford becomes 62B.

  • Two separate roads: 733.06 miles in Oregon, Idaho and Utah, and 232.40 miles in Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts, 965.46 miles in all (FHWA route log, routes as designated on December 31, 2025)
  • Western I-84 also runs 35.98 miles on I-15 in Utah, so Portland to I-80 near Echo is about 769 miles (FHWA route log)
  • Cabbage Hill, OR: a westbound downgrade of about 10 miles from milepost 227 to 217, about 6 percent from milepost 222.4 to 218 through the double hairpin, with a brake check area at the weigh station at milepost 227 and runaway truck ramps at mileposts 221.97 and 220.11 (ODOT)
  • Deadman Pass summit, 3,615 ft at milepost 229.19; Blue Mountain Summit, 4,193 ft at milepost 241.35 (ODOT highway inventory)

  • Idaho: trucks with five or more axles over 26,000 lb have the same interstate limit as lighter vehicles, 75 mph unless posted otherwise (Idaho Code 49-654)
  • Only toll: the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge in New York, eastbound only and cashless. A 5-axle truck pays $15.25 with E-ZPass or $20.00 by mail, the rates in effect since May 1, 2023 and still listed as of October 2026 (New York State Bridge Authority)
  • Oregon scales: Cascade Locks port of entry (milepost 44.90), Wyeth (54.30), Emigrant Hill (226.95), La Grande (258.55), Farewell Bend port of entry (352.93) and Olds Ferry (354.38) (ODOT highway inventory)

04 Notable hazards & trouble spots
Hazard

A 10-mile downgrade with a 6 percent double hairpin

Cabbage Hill (Emigrant Hill), OR (mileposts 227 to 217, westbound)

ODOT calls Emigrant Hill, known as Cabbage Hill, one of the most hazardous stretches of road along westbound I-84. The downgrade starts at milepost 227, about 35 miles west of La Grande, and runs through milepost 217. You lose about 2,000 feet in six miles and go through a double hairpin at 6 percent. ODOT's grade data shows 5.99 to 6.08 percent on the westbound lanes between mileposts 217.96 and 222.40. The brake check area is at the Emigrant Hill weigh station at milepost 227, and the runaway truck ramps are at mileposts 221.97 and 220.11. Warning signs give recommended speeds for trucks with five or more axles: 37 mph at 50,000 to 65,000 lb, 26 mph at 65,000 to 70,000 lb, 22 mph at 70,000 to 75,000 lb and 18 mph at 75,000 to 80,000 lb. ODOT says those are maximums in good weather, and its 2007 Cabbage Hill brochure says that on average 78 percent of crashes there involved out-of-state carriers. Stop at the brake check, and pick your gear and speed from the sign before the grade starts.

Hazard

Fog and black ice in the Blue Mountains

Deadman Pass to La Grande, OR (mileposts 229 to 259)

East of Cabbage Hill, I-84 tops Deadman Pass at milepost 229.19 (3,615 ft) and Blue Mountain Summit at milepost 241.35 (4,193 ft), then drops to La Grande, which begins at milepost 259.19 (ODOT highway inventory). ODOT's Cabbage Hill brochure says fog, snow and black ice are common there from October to April. In a February 27, 2014 release, ODOT reported that about 16 vehicles, nine of them semis, had crashed between Meacham and Cabbage Hill in fog and ice on the night of Monday, February 24, and that it closed the freeway on the next two nights when visibility fell below 100 feet. Before you start the climb from Pendleton or La Grande, check TripCheck or call 511.

Hazard

Chain inspections between Pendleton and La Grande

Poverty Flat, OR (exit 224, eastbound)

When Oregon posts chain signs, any vehicle towing or rated over 10,000 lb GVW must use chains, and traction tires count only for vehicles of 10,000 lb or less that are not towing (ODOT). Commercial vehicles over 10,000 lb GVW must carry chains whenever road conditions might require them and Snow Zone signs are posted. In a March 3, 2021 bulletin, ODOT said that when chains are required in the snow zones between Pendleton and La Grande, eastbound vehicles over 10,000 lb GVW or towing must leave at exit 224, the Poverty Flat interchange, for a mandatory chain inspection, and those that fail are turned back west toward Pendleton. ODOT tied the checks to extended closures caused by trucks that did not chain up. The chain-up area at the bottom of Cabbage Hill is at milepost 217. ODOT says the fine for a truck that fails to use chains has been $880 since 2021 (ORS 815.140).

Hazard

Ice storm and fire closures in the Gorge

Columbia River Gorge, OR (mileposts 17 to 88)

I-84 through the Gorge is entirely in Oregon, from Troutdale at milepost 17 to The Dalles at about milepost 88. On December 23, 2022, ODOT kept it closed from Troutdale to Hood River in "a dangerous combination of snow, ice and high wind" and said truck parking was filling up in Hood River, The Dalles and Biggs Junction. In January 2024 an ice storm closed it between mileposts 17 and 64 for nearly 31 hours. When it reopened on January 17, chains were required from milepost 37 to 63 for all vehicles over 10,000 lb GVW or towing. On June 11, 2025, fires closed I-84 and US 30 between Hood River and The Dalles, and ODOT warned that OR 216, the Sherars Highway, is not suitable for trucks or large vehicles. From Troutdale to The Dalles the posted truck limit is 60 mph, set by the Oregon Transportation Commission in 2017 (ODOT). ODOT asks drivers to wait out a closure where they are rather than drive up to the closure point, and it does not allow parking on the interstate once the lots are full.

Hazard

New exit numbers, and a low-clearance left exit in West Hartford

Connecticut, Danbury to Union (miles 0 to 98)

CTDOT is replacing the I-84 signs in Connecticut and switching from sequential exit numbers to mileage numbers. Its April 30, 2025 release put the end of design in November 2025 and the start of construction in June 2026, and it called the new numbers tentative. Among the changes: the CT 8 ramps in Waterbury (old exits 20 and 19) become 32A and 32B, I-691 to Meriden (old 27) becomes 40A, I-91 North in Hartford (old 51) becomes 62B, I-384 (old 59) becomes 67, and the last exit, CT 171 at Union (old 74), becomes 97. CTDOT's exit renumbering page puts I-84 completion around 2027, and OLD EXIT tabs usually stay up for at least two years, so you may see either number. Go by the route number and the town. The same CTDOT table marks the eastbound left exit to Park Road and West Hartford Center (old 43, new 58) "LOW CLEARANCE." Plan a different exit for West Hartford in a tractor-trailer.

07 FAQ
How long is I-84, and how long does it take a truck to drive it?
The western I-84 is about 769 miles from Portland to I-80 near Echo, Utah, and the eastern I-84 is 232.40 miles from Dunmore, Pennsylvania, to Sturbridge, Massachusetts. The FHWA route log gives the western road 733.06 miles of its own plus 35.98 miles on I-15 in Utah. Under 49 CFR 395.3 a property-carrying driver gets 11 hours of driving inside a 14-hour window after 10 hours off duty, with a 30-minute break after 8 hours of driving. At an average of 55 mph that is about 600 miles a shift, so a solo driver needs two days for the western road, plus time for Cabbage Hill and any winter closure in Oregon. The eastern road fits in one shift.
Does I-84 run from Portland to New England?
Not as one road. The western and eastern I-84s share a number but do not connect. The western one runs from I-5 in Portland through The Dalles, Pendleton, La Grande and Boise, passes just north of Twin Falls and ends at I-80 near Echo, Utah. The eastern one runs from I-81 in Dunmore, next to Scranton, past Newburgh, Danbury, Waterbury and Hartford to I-90 in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. It does not touch I-80 and does not reach Boston.
Is I-84 a toll road?
Only at the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge over the Hudson River in New York, the one toll on I-84. The New York State Bridge Authority collects it eastbound only and cashless, by E-ZPass or Tolls by Mail. As of October 2026 a 5-axle truck pays $15.25 with E-ZPass or $20.00 by mail, and a 6-axle truck $18.30 or $24.00, the rates in effect since May 1, 2023. Westbound across the bridge is free, and Connecticut has no tolls on I-84.
What is the truck speed limit on I-84 in Oregon and Idaho?
In Oregon the statute sets 55 mph for trucks over 10,000 lb GVWR and truck tractors over 8,000 lb unless another speed is posted, and ODOT has posted 60 mph for trucks from Troutdale to The Dalles since late 2017. From the eastern city limit of The Dalles to the Idaho line it is 65 mph (ORS 811.111). Other vehicles get 70 mph on the eastern stretch. On Cabbage Hill the speeds on ODOT's warning signs, as low as 18 mph for a heavy 5-axle truck, are recommended speeds. In Idaho, trucks with five or more axles over 26,000 lb have the same interstate limit as lighter vehicles: 75 mph unless posted otherwise, and up to 80 mph where an ITD engineering and traffic study supports it and the Idaho Transportation Board agrees (Idaho Code 49-654).
How steep is Cabbage Hill, and where do trucks check brakes?
It is a downgrade of about 10 miles on westbound I-84, from milepost 227 to milepost 217. ODOT grade data shows about 6 percent from milepost 222.4 to 218, through the double hairpin, and you lose about 2,000 feet in six miles (ODOT). The brake check area is at the Emigrant Hill weigh station at milepost 227, about two miles west of the Deadman Pass summit at milepost 229.19. Runaway truck ramps are at mileposts 221.97 and 220.11. ODOT's recommended speeds for trucks with five or more axles run from 37 mph at 50,000 to 65,000 lb down to 18 mph at 75,000 to 80,000 lb.
Do trucks have to chain up on I-84 in Oregon?
Yes, when signs require chains. Any vehicle towing or rated over 10,000 lb GVW must use chains then, and traction tires count only for vehicles of 10,000 lb or less that are not towing (ODOT). Commercial vehicles over 10,000 lb GVW must also carry chains whenever road conditions might require them and Snow Zone signs are posted. ODOT has run mandatory chain inspections for eastbound trucks at exit 224 when chains are required between Pendleton and La Grande, and after the January 2024 ice storm it required chains from milepost 37 to 63 in the Gorge. ODOT says the fine for a truck that fails to use chains has been $880 since 2021 (ORS 815.140).
