Update: Work to begin in the Crossroads
Tuesday, October 21, 2008
The SR-68 Design-Build Team will begin intersection improvements in the Crossroads area this month. Initial construction activities will remain within UDOT right of way. Work in this intersection will continue through project completion in summer 2009. To maintain traffic flow, work is planned one quadrant of the intersection at a time and will include the following impacts and restrictions:
Traffic restricted to one lane in all directions, with left-turn lanes at the intersection. Right-turn pockets will be eliminated, with right turns being made from the through-lanes.
Limited pedestrian access at each corner. Alernate pedestrian routes will be posted.
Weekend and/or nighttime work as allowed by weather and City ordinance to accelerate work.
Traffic congestion and delays, especially during peak travel times.
Please see the attached files for additional information on upcoming construction.
Redwood Road Update: 10/16/08
Thursday, October 16, 2008
Thursday morning from approximately 9am - noon crews will be installing a precast structure for the wildlife undercrossing located south of Camp Williams. This work will be completed using a crane to place the structure in sections. These sections will be coming into the project site on large trucks, which will have to back down into the excavated area. For safety purposes during this operation, there will be lane restrictions and brief traffic stops in both directions during those hours. Please plan your drive accordingly. Additionally, work near the intersection of SR-68/SR-73 (the crossroads) will begin next week. Please watch for lane restrictions and expect minor delays. As work picks up in this area in coming weeks, delays will increase. Thanks for your patience. As a reminder, project information and updates are now being broadcast on Highway Advisory Radio 1300 AM. Tune in each week to hear project updates.
Segment 4 - Beginning just south of the intersection at Bangerter Highway and ending at the south end of Bluffdale proper.

Get Involved, Volunteers Needed for Parks
Wednesday, October 15, 2008
Do you have a scout in need of a service or eagle project?
Does your family like to be actively involved in serving the community?
As you may have noticed, the construction of the Dalmore Meadows and Saratoga Hills neighborhood park is progressing nicely. It is expected that the parks should near completion at the end of October early November.
Now it is your turn to assist in the completion of the parks!
Construction bids were advertised and awarded without the inclusion of sod or tree placement, expecting that the area residents would assist in this phase of the park construction. Currently there is 58, 000 square feet of sod for Dalmore Meadows Park and 82,000 square feet of sod for Saratoga Hills needing to be laid.
The time is now to Organize!
It is time to organize volunteers in each park area to get the sod and trees planted in a timely fashion so that all the preparation work does not go to waste.
We will plan on laying sod down in each park the evening of Friday, November 7, 2008 at 4:00 p.m. and all day Saturday, November 8, 2008 starting at 8:00 a.m. *Dates are subject to change due to weather*
For more information regarding the project or to sign up to help please contact Cecil Tuley, Community Volunteer Coordinator, at 766-6127 or email him at: cowboyt1@msn.com.

Segment 4 - Beginning just south of the intersection at Bangerter Highway and ending at the south end of Bluffdale proper. In coordination with the S.R. 68 project, Bluffdale City will continue work on its new waterline this week. This Thursday and Friday crews will be closing the northbound right turn lane on SR-68 at 14400 S.

Work on this process will continue this week in Bluffdale and will extend south into segment 3. This work requires that many truckloads of material be imported. Please allow extra time when traveling through this area as flaggers will be at work to assist these trucks on and off the roadway. Sidewalk installation will occur in Bluffdale this week on the west side of the road between 14400 S. and 15000 S.
