Projects
Flint Street and Gentile Street Traffic Signal Project
June 21, 2010
Beginning on or about June 21, 2010 and lasting until approximately August 20, 2010 construction
will take place on a traffic signal at the intersection of Gentile Street and Flint Street.
A traffic signal at this intersection will significatnly improve the flow, and safety of traffic
transiting this area. Construction activities will include the following: construction of a
median within the roadway to allow for a separation of traffic and permit the free flow of west
bound vehicles when the project is completed; boring under the roadway for the installation of
conduit and power to the signal poles; concrete work at various locations within the area. Delays
and possible road closure may be encountered periodically throughout the construction period.
We ask for your cooperation and understanding and apologize in advance for any inconvenience this
may cause you.
South Layton Interchange Project
Dec. 16, 2009
LAYTON — The South Layton 1-15 Interchange construction has begun in earnest and is making substantial progress. The new full interchange is located at a new Layton street, named “Layton Parkway” just south of Old Downtown Layton.
Initially, Layton Parkway will be constructed from Fort Lane to Flint Street providing access to I-15 and Main Street. The Parkway will be grade separated as it crosses the Union Pacific railroad tracks and the UTA FrontRunner track lines to provide safe, improved east/west access in Layton City.
Ultimately, Layton Parkway will proceed west of Flint Street to Angel Street in the coming years and then beyond to the North Legacy Parkway in the future.
Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction is the design build team hired by UDOT to build the new interchange and add HOV lanes to I-15 north to the Hill Field Road exit.
The combination of these two transportation improvements will lessen congestion on the freeway and local streets. Throughout the winter months, the new interchange will start to take shape with fill material being placed, utilities being constructed and bridge construction beginning. The I-15 HOV lanes will also be constructed.
In spring 2010, major reconstruction of Main Street will begin and the SPUI (single point urban interchange) bridges will be constructed to the side of the freeway and then moved into place in the summer of 2010. The entire project is scheduled for completion in late November 2010.
This project will be a great enhancement to Layton City providing needed transportation improvements, I-15 access alternatives and economic enhancement to Old Downtown Layton.
Main Street businesses continue to be open during the construction, so please show your support by patronizing these businesses whenever you can.
