Croydon Bridge
The Utah Department of Transportation in conjunction with Morgan County announces the start of demolition and reconstruction of the Devil’s Slide Bridge in Croydon as early as Monday, November 7. Exit 111 on I-84 will also close and remain closed until the project is completed Spring of 2023
Due to the extremely narrow working conditions, all traffic currently using the bridge and Exit 111 will be detoured through Croydon via Croydon Road (5800 E) to Henefer Road (6800 E) and access I-84 from Exit 115 (see accompanying map). Residents and businesses in and around Croydon will be asked to use the detour.
“The bridge experiences significant truck traffic due to the Holcim Cement plant
adjacent to the bridge,” according to UDOT Region Communications Manager Mitch Shaw. “Built in the 1930s, it has reached its life expectancy.” He continued. The new structure will be built with wider shoulders, improved sight distance, and feature improvements that will reduce the frequency of the Weber River overflowing onto the bridge deck. Due to the narrow detour route, we encourage drivers to use extra caution when traveling due to the presence of big rigs,” he concluded.
It is estimated that construction will last approximately 120 days.
