Construction Update | August 28, 2025

Chipped road on the project corridor.

Ongoing Work

Crews are continuing the chip and seal process on the road. Early next week crews are moving to the final step of the process, placement of the flush coat. The flush coat helps lock down the gravel pieces on the top of the road to provide texture.


Upcoming Work

  • Guard rail installation
  • Sign installation
  • Roadway striping

CAUTION: Motorcycle, Cyclists, and Drivers

Road resurfacing causes uneven road surfaces, and loose gravel throughout the corridor. Please use caution and prioritize safety while travelling through the construction area. Reduce speed, follow posted signage, and be alert of crew members and equipment.

Project Overview

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) is completing a roadway replacement project on US-89 from Beaver Creek Resort to milepost (MP) 492 in Logan Canyon, spanning approximately 6 miles. The project will extend the life of the roadway, replace damaged signage and guardrail, and update drainage culverts. This project will provide drivers with improved mobility and safety throughout the corridor.

What to Expect

  • Daytime work Monday through Thursday (7 a.m. – 7 p.m.)
  • Occasional nighttime work
  • Noise, dust, and vibration
  • Occasional canyon closures and lane restrictions
  • Heavy equipment, support vehicles, and crew members
  • One-way flagging operations

*Construction schedules are subject to change due to weather, utility, and material delays.

Logan Canyon Fiber Project

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) is undertaking a project to install fiber-optic cable in Logan Canyon. This fiber optic cable installation will improve broadband access in Logan Canyon, allowing for easier and more reliable community connection for Logan City, Garden City, and Beaver Mountain Resort. It will also strengthen and enhance communication capabilities, strengthen emergency service support, and create opportunities for these communities to expand services and improve connectivity.
