During the month of June, the Mayor’s Office will hold a series of Open Houses to give you an opportunity to review and comment on proposed site locations and learn about the criteria and steps used in the selection process.  I encourage you to attend an Open House or send us your input.

Schedule for Public Meetings and Open Houses:

Thursday, June 11 - Thursday, June 18, 2009 (weekdays)

4:30 - 6:00 p.m.

Public Safety Complex Open House

City & County Building, First Floor Gallery

451 South State Street, SLC

• Traffic will remain in the new 3×2 lane configuration on the east side of the Interstate (the old northbound side) until late Fall 2009. The lanes will be shifted on weekdays to maintain three lanes in the peak direction.
• The southbound on and off-ramps at 2300 North and 900 West will remain closed through late Fall 2009. Additional ramps closures are anticipated for later in the summer. More information will be provided as those schedules are confirmed.

Safety in the work zone:

• PLEASE SLOW DOWN & PAY ATTENTION WHEN DRIVING IN THE WORK ZONE. Lane widths have been narrowed and lanes shift through the corridor.
• Leave extra time for your travel and obey the posted speed. The speed limit is 55 mph throughout the project corridor.
• Allow other drivers to merge and change lanes as necessary.
• Allow a safe distance between your vehicle and the one in front of you. A safe following distance allows a safer breaking distance.

Scheduled activities for the week of June 15:

On I-15:

• LANE CLOSURES: I-15 will be reduced to two lanes in each direction on the following dates so that crews can drill shafts needed for the substructure of the new U.S. 89 Bridge:

•  
  • Friday June 12 at 9pm until Monday June 15 at 4am, and
  • Monday June 15 from 9pm until Tuesday June 16 at 4am

On U.S. 89:

• LANE CLOSURE: One lane will be closed nightly through June 18 on Southbound U.S. 89 near the bridge so that crews can continue work on the new U.S. 89 structure.

Behind the closure on I-15 (the old southbound side):

• Crews will begin excavation and utility relocation behind the closure in preparation for grading and paving.

Alternate Routes:

UDOT advises motorists to take alternate routes whenever possible during construction. Suggested alternate routes include Legacy Parkway, I-215, and I-80.
