Overview

UDOT will be resurfacing U.S. Highway 40 (U.S. 40) from
1500 South in Vernal to state Route 45 in Naples. The
project is scheduled to begin in mid-April and continue
through early fall. Construction crews will be installing
storm drains, curb, gutter, sidewalks and pedestrian
ramps; removing and repaving the asphalt roadway
surface; and reconstructing Vernal Avenue and 500 West
with new concrete pavement. To minimize traffic delays,
crews will work primarily at night and through the
weekends. These repairs will result in a smoother ride
for drivers and a longer life for the roadway.

What to Expect

Drivers traveling on U.S. 40 between Vernal and Naples can anticipate
ongoing nighttime work for the duration of the project. Residents and
businesses along U.S. 40 should plan ahead for temporary shoulder
closures during the daytime, and construction activities during overnight
hours from 7:30 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. The construction team will work closely
with businesses to coordinate access during construction. While noise
impacts are anticipated, the work is expected to move quickly along U.S. 40
and construction activities should last only a short duration in each location.
During intersection reconstruction at Vernal Avenue and 500 West, one
lane in each direction on U.S. 40 will remain open at all times. Only one
intersection will be under construction at a time, and each will take
approximately one month to complete. Vernal Avenue and 500 West will
each be closed to through traffic, but detours and alternate routes will be
clearly marked.
