The 11-mile (18 km) business loop follows the former alignment of U.S. Route 30 (US 30), which was moved to I-84 in 1985. I-84 Bus. was created in its place. [2] The cities of Caldwell and Nampa requested that the business loop be relinquished by the state in 2019 due to it no longer functioning as a state highway. [3] In 2022, the Idaho Transportation Board approved a proposal to decommission I-84 Bus. and extend SH-19 over a section of it in Caldwell, but await AASHTO approval. [4]

From there the runs southeast overlapping US 30. I-84 Bus/US 30 climbs an embankment for a bridge over a canal and a set of railroad tracks, then makes a left turn toward the northeast. The route curves back to the southeast at a fork in the road with Proctor Street just before officially crossing the city line at the triangle with South 650 East. Further in town, the road curves straight east at the intersection with 3rd Avenue, then passes by the local church and elementary school. Just after US 30 turns right at a frontage road along I-84, I-84 Bus ends at exit 141 (this time a conventional diamond interchange) and is taken over by US 26.

Tremonton business loop

Business Loop 84.svg
Interstate 84 Business
Location Box Elder County
Length5.7354 mi (9.2302 km)

Interstate 84 Business (I-84 Bus.) is a 5.7354-mile (9.2302 km) northern business loop off of I-84 that passes through Tremonton and Elwood and runs along State Route 102 (SR-102) and State Route 13 (SR-13) . It is the first business route on I-84 in the state and is mostly concurrent with I-15 Bus.

I-84 Bus. begins at exit 40 on I-84 in Tremonton and proceeds east along SR-102 (West Main Street) to pass under I-15 (with no access). At 1000 West (Iowa String Road), the two routes are joined by I-15 Bus from the north (after it passed by the Bear River Valley Hospital) and then all three routes (I-15 Bus., I-84 Bus., and SR-102) continue east on West Main Street. Upon crossing Tremonton Street, the three routes transition from West Main Street to East Main Street. Next the three routes connect with the southern end of Utah State Route 82 (North 300 East). Well beyond the developed areas of Tremonton the three routes reach an intersection with Utah State Route 13 (SR-13 / 1600 East) at Haws Corner Junction. At that intersection I-15 Bus. and I-84 Bus. both turn south onto SR-13. The three routes (I-15 Bus., I-84 Bus., and SR-13) continue south on South 1600 West to leave Tremonton and, about 3,500 feet (1,100 m) later, enter Elwood. The three routes then reach the southern terminus of I-15 Bus. and the eastern terminus of I-84 Bus. at Interstate 15  / I-84 (exit 376).

Brigham City business loop

Business Loop 84.svg
Interstate 84 Business
Location Brigham City

Interstate 84 Business (I-84 Bus) is a business loop of I-84 along I-15 Bus in Brigham City.

The route begins at a folded diamond interchange with I-15/I-84 at exit 365 and runs south along SR-13. The reason for the folded diamond is due to the fact that the segment of SR-13 that the routes originally overlap runs along the north side of a Union Pacific Railroad line. The tracks move away from the road between North 1100th West Street, and 950th West Street, only to cross under a low bridge for another Union Pacific Railroad line, and then another bridge for North 500th West Street.

I-15 Bus/I-84 Bus/SR-13 curves to the right before turning south at the intersection with North Main Street, which is also the southern terminus of SR-38. The routes cross over a bridge over Box Elder Creek between 500th Street North and 400th Street North. At Forest Street, North Main Street becomes South Main Street, which runs under the Brigham City Archway. One and a half blocks later, they intersect 200th Street South, which also serves as the western terminus of SR-90, and instantly runs between the National Register of Historic Places-listed Box Elder Stake Tabernacle on the southeast corner of that intersection, and the contemporary but still traditional Brigham City Utah Temple on the southwest corner.

SR-13 ends at the southern terminus of the overlap of US 89/US 91, and I-15 Bus/I-84 Bus makes a sharp right turn along southbound US 91, while South Main Street is taken over by southbound US 89. I-15 Bus/I-84 Bus/US 91 runs west along West 1100th Street South. I-15 Bus/I-84 Bus ends at exit 362, a diverging diamond interchange with I-15/I-84, while West 1100th Street South continues into the I-15 frontage road, and becomes a dead-end street at the truck stop along the aforementioned frontage road.
