STUDY COMPLETE

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has conducted an Environmental Assessment (EA) consistrent with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to evaluate widening I-15 between Payson and Rocky Ridge, and improving the I-15 and Main Street interchange in Santaquin. The EA considered current and future transportation needs while considering any potential impacts to the natural and built environments.

 

The EA, as amended, and the Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) has been approved and the project can proceed toward design and construction, when funding becomes available. All future phases of the project are dependent on funding.
