WELCOME TO GENEVA ROAD

Geneva Road is one of the primary north-south corridors connecting Provo to Pleasant Grove. As the area continues to grow, UDOT is planning to expand Geneva Road to improve travel for all of its users. Improvements to Geneva Road will include widening the road to 5 lanes (including a center turn lane) between University Parkway and 1600 North in Orem and building a bridge over the railroad tracks near 400 South in Orem.

Construction Zone Safety

Construction work zones present a challenge to drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists and construction crews. Construction workers are performing difficult tasks with live traffic just a few feet away and drivers, pedestrians and bicyclists are traveling through unfamiliar and often-changing road conditions. This is true with the Geneva Road project. Many areas along the road have little or no shoulder area, which makes it difficult for bicyclists or joggers to stay out of the traffic lane. For their own safety, pedestrians and bicyclists are strongly encouraged to seek alternate routes wherever possible.

UDOT's first goal in every construction project is to make sure no one gets hurt. Here are four rules to help you stay safe:

• Do not enter construction zones
• Be alert and careful near construction zones
• Cross only at assigned areas
• Find an alternate route for walking or biking
