Construction Update

Planned Activities:
  • Rock excavation is expected to complete today, Thursday, January 26. Roadway excavation continues in areas where the roadway shoulders will be widened and is expected to continue through early February.
  • New material placement is scheduled to begin next week through early March. Expect an increase in trucks hauling material to the project. Some vibration is possible where new material is being compacted for shoulder widening.
  • Culvert installation and roadway crossings will continue through the end of January.
Project Description: 
The section of SR-9 between the entrance to Rockville and just south of the Majestic View Lodge will be resurfaced and some of the shoulders will be widened between January and April 2017. 

Impacts:
Construction has been scheduled to occur during the lowest park visitation season and is anticipated to complete by April 2017. Work will occur during the day. UDOT will maintain one lane of traffic at all times, to be controlled with flaggers and/or a pilot car. Delays of up to 15 minutes can be anticipated. 

Pedestrian Safety During Construction:
We want you to stay safe during construction. Crews are actively working in Rockville and are asking pedestrians and bicyclists to avoid work zones whenever possible. Please follow posted signs and flagger instructions or cross to the other side of the road when possible.
