Logan Canyon Fiber Update
Construction Update | August 1, 2025 |
|
Raspberry Days Construction activities in the canyon will pause on Wednesday, August 6, at 12 p.m., through Monday, August 11 at 7 a.m. Work in Logan City near the entrance of canyon will pause on Wednesday, August 6, at 5 p.m., through Monday, August 11 at 7 a.m. Security and construction barrels will remain in place to protect the work zones. |

Upcoming Construction Activities Crews will continue trenching for fiber conduit installation in the traffic lanes at the following locations: - Milepost (MP) 460 to 461.7 (near Canyon Rd and Canyon Entrance Park)
- MP 480.5 to 482.5 (near Tony Grove Rd)
This work includes rock saw excavation, allowing for precise material removal with minimal impact to surrounding structures. Please drive with caution through the work zones. Impact to travel will be minimal near Canyon Entrance Park, but traffic will occasionally have to stop for 5 minutes for machinery maintenance.
Drivers can anticipate heavy traffic delays and signalized one-way traffic at one location throughout the project area. |
|
CAUTION: Motorcycle, Cyclists, and Drivers There are trenches, 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. |
