UDOT to close ramp from westbound US-40 to westbound I-80 for up to three weeks
September 13, 2024
Several projects will close lanes that drivers need to be aware of
The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) recommends drivers plan ahead for a long-term freeway ramp closure in Park City.
Crews will close the westbound US-40 to westbound I-80 ramp for up to 21 days beginning this Sunday, September 15, at 6 a.m. for repaving work. During this time, crews will excavate the area, import new road base and pave the ramp that connects westbound US-40 and I-80.
Motorists can still access westbound I-80 by proceeding to the signalized intersection on US-40.
Construction schedules are weather-dependent and subject to change.
UDOT has several other projects drivers should plan ahead for over the next week:
- Legacy Parkway at Parrish Lane: the southbound Legacy Parkway on- and off-ramps at Parrish Lane will be closed Friday, Sept. 13 from 9 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. while crews repave the highway.
- I-215 eastbound near Foothill Drive and 3300 S: expect lane closures and intermittent ramp closures as the lane striping crew installs new wider lane markings designed for high visibility and reflectivity. The crew will work overnight starting at 9 p.m. The lane striping crew will move to SR-201 next week.
- Ogden Canyon: SR-39 in Ogden Canyon will be closed Monday, Sept. 16, and Wednesday, Sept. 18, from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. while crews continue work installing new safety enhancements in the canyon (including a new centerline rumble strip and new barrier along the river). Drivers should use alternate routes like Trappers Loop during this time.
