Construction begins on I-15 technology corridor April 24, 2018, 3:02 pmThe joint contractors for the $450 million Utah Department of Transportation design-build project (which at press date was 7 percent complete) are Ames Construction and Wadsworth Brothers Construction. The project, which will add two new freeway lanes in each direction, will include reconstruction of the I-15/ Timpanogos Highway interchange and the I-15/2100 North interchange. A new bridge is being constructed over I-15 at Triumph Blvd. just south of Thanksgiving Point. Thirteen bridges along the corridor will be replaced at cross streets and railroad crossings. One-way frontage roads and new bike and pedestrian connections will be added between 2100 North and the Timpanogos Highway intersection. Last year, the Utah Transportation Commission moved the project up from a scheduled 2020 funding date to 2018 due to rapid growth in the area. The project is expected to be complete in late-2020. Future plans include freeway-to-freeway ramps at 2100 North to connect I-15 with the future Mountain View Corridor freeway. (This has not been funded yet.)
