I-15: 2700 North To I-84 Interchange In Riverdale - Rehabilitation Project 

Formerly known as the I-15 NOW project, this project is designed to extend the life of the pavement. By completing this project, UDOT is able to preserve Utah's infrastructure by applying cost effective treatments before major rehabilitation is required. The project begins on the south end at approximately the merge of I-84 and I-15 in Riverdale and continues just beyond the 2700 N (Farr West), Exit 349. Crews have begun rehabilitation work on I-15 from the I-84 Interchange in Riverdale, to the SR-134 (2700 North) Interchange in Farr West. This work will consist of removing 1.5 inches of the asphalt surface on the roadway and then repaving with new asphalt. This process will continue through mid-September, with the majority of work happening at night.
