UPDATE: Travelers heading to or from Salt Lake City International Airport this weekend should brace for significant disruptions. UDOT has announced urgent lane and ramp closures on I-215 due to necessary pavement panel replacement, effective from October 7-8, 2023.
The closures are expected to impact traffic flow substantially, with motorists advised to seek alternative routes. Affected areas will include both northbound and southbound lanes, creating potential delays for travelers during peak hours.
UDOT emphasizes that these critical repairs are essential for maintaining road safety and infrastructure. As teams work diligently to replace the pavement panels, the agency urges commuters to allow extra travel time and remain patient amidst the construction.
Travelers should monitor real-time traffic updates and plan accordingly, especially if they have flights to catch. The impact of these closures could extend beyond the airport, affecting local traffic patterns throughout the weekend.
