Additional Lane Closures:

Additional eastbound (EB) shoulder and outside lane closures may be necessary on occasion over the next several months. Additionally, a full EB I-84 nighttime closure will be necessary in the month of June 2026.  Dates and times TBA.  We will share any upcoming closures via the website, social media, and UDOT Traffic app as they become available.  Closures schedules are permitted as weather and material availability permits. Drivers should be prepared for barrels on the roadway to guide them into the open lanes past the construction zone.  More details on [ Impacts and Updates Tab ]

Walking Path Closed:

The walking/bike trail beneath I-84 along the river is currently closed for your safety while construction is ongoing. Please stay tuned for updates on when the trail will reopen.

 

Project Description:

UDOT is reconstructing the eastbound and westbound I-84 Weber River/Union Pacific Railroad bridges two miles east from the mouth of Weber Canyon in Weber County.  

This project will provide two new structures at this location, each with an anticipated service life of 75 years. These new bridges will also provide updated typical sections, along with improved detailing and geometry, resulting in a safer and more efficient facility for the traveling public. 

Please stay tuned for additional information as it becomes available.

See "Impacts & Updates" tab for latest traffic control information.

Project Milestones

  • Phase 2 (Jun. 2025 – Jul. 2026): Crews will continue building the new eastbound bridge foundation, place the girders and set the deck. Occasional EB single-lane and full nighttime closures possible.  Times will vary between nighttime and daytime hours.

 

  • Traffic Crossover (Oct. 2026 – Aug. 2027):
    • Eastbound I-84: Two lanes will remain open with minimal delays.

    • Westbound I-84: Reduced to one lane at all times. Expect slower travel and delays.
