Construction is underway as of November 10, 2025 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:

• Removal of the bridge, trail, and roadway before the end of November

• 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 will be in place, please see maps below for details.

 

What You Can Expect During Construction:

• Bridge and trail closures for vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians beginning as early as November 10, 2025.

• These closures 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.

• More detailed impacts will be shared once construction is underway.
