Projects

The project from Antelope to the Layton City/Clearfield City border near Weber State University will be completed in two phases. Phase I will begin around July 10, 2008 and will include the removal of existing asphalt from 2250 North to the border. Work on this phase is scheduled to be completed within two months. Phase II is anticipated to begin in August and will include the removal of existing asphalt from Antelope Drive to 2250 North. Access to all businesses and homes will be maintained within the project limits during construction. A detour route has been established for Phase I through traffic and may be viewed at www.laytoncity.org/downloads/PubWorks/UniversityParkBlvd.pdf. Notification will be posted on the Layton City website for new detour routes prior to the commencement of Phase II.

The West Gentile Reconstruction project is still progressing on schedule and should be completed this fall. The project involves complete road excavation for reconstruction and utility modification from 2200 West to 3700 West (the western Layton border), and installation of a new traffic signal at 3200 West. West Gentile Street will remain closed to through traffic from 2200 West to 3700 West until the project is completed. The intersection of 3200 West and West Gentile Street will also be closed. Only local traffic will be allowed within the construction area. A detour route has been established for through traffic and may be viewed at www.laytoncity.org/downloads/PubWorks/GentileDetour070208.pdf. Notification will be posted on the Layton City website for any changes to the detour route.

Layton City is proposing a new South Layton Interchange exit 332 on Interstate 15, at approximately 400-500 S. Fort Lane. The City has been coordinating with the Utah Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Study (EIS). The study portion of the project has been submitted to FHWA for review, which will determine a preferred alternative and a Record of Decision for this interchange.
