On Monday, March 18th, crews started demolition of the bridge deck by removing the existing fence and parapets off the bridge. By mid-week special equipment will remove the existing asphalt and then saw cutting and removal of the old concrete sub-deck will occur.
Safety Reminders
Safety on and around the project is the number one priority for motorists, pedestrians, construction crews and UDOT personnel.
Please note these precautions:
-No pedestrians are allowed on the bridge, at any time, once the closure is in place.
-Motorists will not be permitted on the bridge until it reopens later this summer.
-Please use the detours that are in place.
-Avoid stopping or parking immediately under the bridge deck at all times.
-Watch for heavy equipment entering and leaving the project. Be careful not to follow trucks into the project area.
-Watch for occasional flagging operations and please observe their instructions.
