Site work and paving for a road / highway in Cedar City, Utah. Working plans call for site work for a road / highway; and for paving for a road / highway.

From repaving highways to improving transit options and enhancing pedestrian access, UDOT is kicking off a busy construction season across Utah. Today UDOT announced 152 new construction projects worth $1.68 billion will start this year, with another 145 continuing construction. Planned improvements range from big, brand-new infrastructure like new interchanges, bridges and lanes to community-building measures like extending transit routes and building trails. "Every day, Utahns are out driving to work, picking up kids, heading to the mountains or just getting where they need to go," UDOT Deputy Director Lisa Wilson said. "Our job is to make sure those trips are as safe and smooth as possible. These projects might cause some short-term delays, but in the long run, they'll mean better roads, less congestion and a safer and more reliable way to get around - no matter how you travel." As crews work to improve the state's transportation network, drivers are reminded to slow down and stay safe in work zones. Drivers should plan ahead for potential delays and shifting traffic patterns on these major projects this summer: 1800 North and I-15 intersection: Davis County - $385 million This project will build a new interchange at the intersection of 1800 North and I-15 in Clearfield. Additionally, to accommodate current and future travel in the area, 1800 North will be widened up to 2000 West, an overpass at 500 West to cross the railroad will be added and other measures are planned to create space for a future Hill Air Force Base entrance gate. Work began in March and is expected to finish in fall of 2027. I-84 bridges in Weber Canyon: Morgan County - $52 million UDOT will replace two I-84 bridges over the Weber River and Union Pacific Railroad just west of the Weber Canyon rest area. First, a new eastbound bridge will be constructed immediately to the south of the existing bridges. Once complete, the new eastbound bridge will accommodate all traffic while the existing structures are removed, and the westbound bridge is constructed. The project is underway and is anticipated to take two years to complete. I-215 from SR-201 to North Temple: Salt Lake County - $190 million Crews will repave three miles of I-215 and 14 miles worth of ramps on SR-201, I-80 and California Avenue. In addition to repaving, 22 bridges will be repaved, a new drainage system will be installed and pavement will be preserved for the next 15 years. This project is expected to start this summer and is anticipated to take two years to complete. I-80 from SR-36 to SR-201 and SR-36 from Stansbury Parkway to I-80: Tooele County - $38.4 million UDOT will widen this growing corridor and add an auxiliary lane on eastbound I-80 from SR-36 to the SR-201 on-ramp. Additionally, a northbound lane on SR-36 from Stansbury Park to the I-80 eastbound on-ramp will be added. Work is underway and will continue through summer of 2026. Geneva Road from University Parkway to 1800 South: Utah County - $34.4 million Crews will widen the road to two lanes in each direction and create a center turn lane. Additionally, this project will add bike lanes, a 10-foot-wide shared-use path on the east side of the project area and a sidewalk on the west side. Construction is anticipated to begin this summer and conclude in fall of 2026. US-189 from Wallsburg to Charleston: Wasatch County - $53.1 million This project in Provo Canyon will widen US-189 to two lanes in each direction, create a signalized intersection at US-189 and SR-113 and enhance the Island Beach Day Use Area entrance. Wildlife protection measures will also be part of this project. Construction is expected to begin later this summer and wrap in late winter of 2026. US-6 from Chicken Hollow to Tie Fork: Utah County - $59.9 million Crews will widen US-6 from two lanes to four lanes - with acceleration and deceleration lanes at the Sheep Creek intersection - and add a center median. Additionally, drainage in the area will be improved to accommodate recent issues. Construction is expected to start this fall and last approximately two years. US-191, north of Summit: Duchesne County - $30.75 million UDOT will add a two-mile-long passing lane and increase the number of shoulder and chain-up areas. Crews will also add a variety of safety measures, including drainage improvements and guardrail and fencing additions. Construction is scheduled to begin April 21 underway and expected to wrap by the end of next year. I-15 from Kanarraville to South Cedar interchange: Iron County - $90.3 million This project will create a 13-mile-long northbound climbing lane on I-15 from the Kanarraville rest stop to the South Cedar interchange. Additionally, the project will widen I-15 to three northbound lanes, tying in an existing three lane section constructed in 2020. The project will also reconstruct the northbound side of the Hamilton Fork interchange to improve clearance and construct a roundabout on the east side of I-15, next to Exit 51. Construction is anticipated to begin in May and is expected to conclude by December 2026. Ongoing construction will continue this summer on several major UDOT projects: 5600 South in Roy and Riverdale: Weber County - $361 million This year, the 5600 South Improved Mobility project will begin phase three of its construction. This includes construction on the middle and side of I-15, as well as the reconstruction of 5600 South. Construction is expected to last through the summer of 2026. Bangerter Highway interchanges: Salt Lake County - $415.3 million For more than a decade, UDOT has been working to eliminate stoplights on Bangerter Highway by converting intersections into interchanges. UDOT is currently building our new interchanges at 9800 South, 13400 South, 2700 West and 4700 South, with completion expected by the end of the year. Midvalley Express route: Salt Lake County - $104.1 million Led and funded by UTA, UDOT will begin major construction of UTA's third bus rapid transit (BRT) route. This brand-new, seven-mile route will have 15 stations and provide a valuable connection to UTA commuter rail and light rails. The construction of this all-electric line will also include the creation of 1.4 miles of bus-only lanes and priority traffic signals to speed up the transportation of public transit users. Construction is expected to wrap in fall 2026. Mountain View Corridor: Utah County - $466 million https://www.udot.utah.gov/connect/2025/04/16/udot-announces-new-and-ongoing-2025-construction/ Four new miles of freeway are being constructed to connect 2100 North in Lehi to Porter Rockwell Boulevard in Herriman. This project includes upgrading the intersection of 2100 North and Redwood Road with a new bridge, installing wildlife fencing and creating a multi-use trail. Construction is expected to last through the spring of 2026. SR-162 and SR-262: San Juan County - $152 million Crews are continuing paving work to improve safety on state routes in San Juan County on the Energy Corridor. This year, crews will also install fiber-optic cables, cattle guards and drainage systems. Construction is expected to last through the spring of 2026.
