Current Construction Activities

• Work on the landscaping walls for the pedestrian crossing at the 2100 N./2300 W. intersection will continue through the end of next week. Work on the surrounding landscaping and irrigation system will be ongoing.

• The new sidewalk, curb and gutter at the 2100 N./ 2300 W. intersection is installed.
• Crews will restripe the road at this intersection next week to help traffic flow safely and efficiently. For the public’s safety, barrels will remain in place on the shoulders of the intersection.

• By late next week, after the west side of the intersection is complete, traffic will no longer be shifted to the east. 

Ongoing Project Impacts 

• Excavation work is currently underway between the two frontage roads on the east side of 2100 N./2300 W. This work requires many loads of construction material to be brought in and out of the work zone. The excavation work will create dust in the general vicinity; the contractor will be sending water trucks through regularly to manage this.
• Crews continue preparing the west side of the project between the Jordan River and Redwood Road for the future roadway.  This work includes installing walls, placing fill material and work on bridge and underpass structures.
• In the interest of safety, the small section of Jordan River Trail that falls within the project area has been closed. Access along the trail to the north and south will remain open, but there will be no connecting access through the project during construction.
• In order to construct the new railroad bridge and subsequently build the roadway beneath the bridge, UTA and UDOT have fully closed 2100 North between 2300 West and Pointe Meadows Drive. This closure will remain in place through Fall of 2011. Motorists should plan to use 1500 North as an alternate route.
