US-40 | East Basin to Park City | Maintenance

This project will improve culverts, replace storm drains, and grade the median to ensure proper drainage. Work begins after July 24, 2025, and ends this fall.

Overview

U.S. Route 40 Culvert Maintenance

Work has begun to repair multiple culverts along US-40 in Summit County that have deteriorated due to corrosion from sediment and debris-laden flood waters. These repairs will increase drainage function and improve roadway safety. Maintaining the roadway drainage system is critical to the long-term structural integrity of the highway system.

Work was pause for the winter, and will resume in early summer of 2026.

Road shoulders along US-40 may be closed during work hours in the highlighted area shown in the map below.

Work includes lining and repairing the culverts, replacing storm drain infrastructure and grading the median to accommodate the drainage flow.

Construction began August 11, 2025.
