Ongoing Activities

• As early as January 25 and again on January 29, crews will have a short-term water interruption lasting several hours each day. Affected property owners have already been notified.

• Crews have begun work on a new concrete wall near Galilee Way on the north side of 9000 South. Please take extra caution in this area as the work is immediately adjacent to the roadway.

• Crews continue work on new storm drain lines on the south side of 9000 South near 900 West along with new canal piping between 1300 West and Redwood Road. As this work continues, businesses may have short-term access interruptions.

• Additional work continues near the Jordan River where crews are forming, placing rebar, and pouring concrete for the new bridge supports.

*Schedule is subject to change due to weather, equipment, or material delays.

Support Local Business

Supporting local businesses not only stimulates local economies, but the tax revenue made through sale taxes from local businesses supports local government. This is then used to reinvest in the community. During construction, it is especially important to make a commitment to shop locally and support small businesses along the corridor.

Accesses to all your favorite businesses will always be maintained - just maybe in a different location. #ShopLocal

Safety

Information for bicyclists and pedestrians

As a reminder, all bicycles need to use the approved detour and avoid 9000 South. Additionally, there is no pedestrian access between 900 West and 700 West. Pedestrians are prohibited from using 9000 South between this section as the roadway has been narrowed and there are no usable pedestrian facilities. The approved detour maps are below.

We ask all drivers in work zones to:

• Slow down – drive the posted speeds, they're there for your safety.
• Be kind – our workers are out there helping to keep you safe and improve the roadways.
• Pay attention – both to workers directing you and surrounding traffic; put your phone down when behind the wheel.
• Stay calm – expect delays, leave early or take an alternate route if possible; no meeting or appointment is worth risking someone's life.
