Significant closures on Bangerter Highway in West Valley City are occurring this weekend, and other closures are planned on I-15 next week in American Fork.
Other key restrictions this weekend are planned on I-80 ramps at Salt Lake City International Airport, 5400 South in Taylorsville and I-15 in Kaysville.
The Utah Department of Transportation said it is closing Bangerter Highway in both directions late Friday from 2700 South to 3500 South. It plans to reopen the stretch on Monday at 5 a.m. Crews are grinding the concrete to smooth the road and repair potholes and cracks.
Both directions on I-15 at 500 East in American Fork are scheduled to be closed beginning Monday at 11 p.m. and reopened Tuesday at 5 a.m. Crews will be pouring concrete on the south bridge at the new 500 East interchange. Signs will be in place to guide motorists through a detour route. The I-15 entrance and exit ramps at 200 North in Kaysville will be closed Saturday. Southbound ramps will be closed from 7 a.m. through 1 p.m., and northbound ramps will be closed from 1 p.m. through 7 p.m.
UDOT says 5400 South between Redwood Road and Bangerter Highway will be reduced to one lane in each direction on Sunday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Left turns will be prohibited at all intersections, side streets and driveways. Selected ramps on I-80 near the airport will have nightly closures from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. for maintenance work through Nov. 30.
