Starting Friday night, the Utah Department of Transportation will be closing Interstate 15 in Davis County overnight to place beams on a new I-15 interchange in Farmington. The closures will take place over 5 nights.
I-15 between 200 North and Park Lane will be closed in both directions during the following times:
- Friday, April 18: 10 p.m. to 8 a.m.
- Monday, April 21 through Thursday, April 24: 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
- Friday, April 25: 10 p.m. to 10 a.m.
During the closures, traffic will be detoured to U.S. Highway 89 and Main Street in Kaysville. UDOT says drivers during the closures should plan for heavy travel delays in the area. Residents nearby may also experience increased noise, dust, truck traffic, and vibration from the work.
