Construction is underway to build a new, 83-foot-wide bridge with roadway improvements including curb and gutter, trail, drainage, water utilities and upgrades to landscaping.

​

During this work, 820 North at the bridge site and the Provo River Parkway Trail between 900-800 North will be closed to maintain public safety and allow crews to efficiently complete their work.

 

Generally, the contractor anticipates the phasing to be:

• Soil stabilization through December

• Construction of the foundation and abutments, or the vertical support structures that distribute weight from the bridge deck through the structure, from January to March

• Setting of the girders, or the big, horizontal beams that support the road and are major milestone of construction, is anticipated in April

• Final construction of the road, including asphalt replacement, curb and gutter, drainage, and striping is anticipated through mid-summer

• These dates are tentative and dependent on weather, materials availability, other factors, and may change

 

Work hours are anticipated to be Monday – Friday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. No night work is anticipated for the immediate future. Marked detour routes are in place; please see maps below for details.

​

What You Can Expect During Construction:

• Bridge and trail closures for vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians will last until the bridge work is complete, anticipated summer 2026.

• Noise, dust and vibration. Intermittent side street and driveway access interruptions. Planned interruptions will be communicated in advance to residents.

• If you run into problems, please stay out of the work zone and contact the team via phone or text at 385-386-3806.
