Crews continue placing construction signs and completing preliminary work items with virtually no traffic interference. The contractor is tentatively scheduled to begin placing concrete barrier late next week, March 27 - 31.
Crews anticipate keeping all southbound lanes open while placing the barrier.
If lane closures are necessary, they will be implemented during overnight hours, between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. However, the outside shoulder of the southbound lanes will be closed, and motorists are advised to watch for crews and large equipment working. The concrete barrier installation will take approximately 1-2 weeks. UDOT reassures Utah County motorists that, as significant operations get underway, two traffic lanes will be maintained on northbound and southbound I-15 during peak daytime hours, between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. Lane closures will be scheduled during overnight hours. Individual ramps will be closed for specific construction operations.
