SR-36 Construction Update

Installation of median concrete barrier and curbing, and shoulder rumble strips (grooved pavement) as a

safety enhancement between 2400 North and Erda Way to reduce potential crashes.

Traffic signal upgrades to radar sensor systems at all signalized intersections between Vine Street in

Tooele and Saddleback Blvd. in Lakepoint; although motorists should not notice any significant changes to

signal functionality, the upgrades will bring the system up to date with the most modern vehicle detection

equipment and improve overall effciency.

Erda Way.  The intersections of 2400 North and Cimmaron Way have been temporarily restriped to accommodate construction.

Holiday Weekend:  In observance of the Thanksgiving holiday, no crews will be on-site

Thursday, Nov. 28, through Sunday, Dec. 1.   All travel lanes will be open during the holiday weekend as well.  Crews will be working Monday through Wednesday, Nov. 25-27, as usual.

Median Work:  Median work (installation of crash cushion pads and markers on new concrete barrier) will

continue through the week of Dec. 2 between 2400 North and Erda Way.  Motorists should expect intermittent

thru and turn-lane restrictions during daytime hours (7 a.m. – 5 p.m.) in off-peak travel directions.

Signal Work:  Signal upgrades are expected to begin during the week of Nov. 18 and continue through early

December at signalized intersections between Vine Street in Tooele and Interstate 80.  To facilitate this work,

motorists should expect intermittent left-turn lane restrictions during off-peak traffic hours at intersections where

work is occurring.  Law enforcement will assist with traffic control in these areas.  Work will progress along the

SR-36 corridor with short-term impacts at each individual intersection.

General Traffic Impacts:

Construction crews plan to work Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily , with weekend work as needed.

Night work will be from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. as needed to minimize traffic impacts.

All travel lanes on SR-36 will be open during peak traffic hours in peak directions and a minimum of one lane will be maintained in each direction during off-peak travel times.

Motorists should expect intermittent lane closures and left-turn lane restrictions during off-peak traffic times at

intersections where work is occurring.  Law enforcement will assist with traffic control at various locations.

Property access will be maintained during construction.

Motorists are advised to reduce speeds and use caution while traveling through the work zone.
