Roadwork ramping up in Northern Utah

CLEARFIELD — Despite winterlike weather conditions across much of the Top of Utah, spring is here, and that means work on local roads is starting to ramp up.

Phase 1 of the $70 million State Road 193 project in Clearfield has started between Center and Main streets, and the work brings with it some major impacts to the travelling public.

SR 193 will be extended from State Street on 700 South in Clearfield, then around the Freeport Center to 200 South and then west to 2000 West in Syracuse.

Beginning today, Main Street through Clearfield will close indefinitely everywhere north of 700 South. Utah Department of Transportation spokesman Vic Saunders said the north end of south Main Street will eventually be turned into a cul-de-sac to make way for a new overpass.

Quest Academy sets up 'Cop Stop' treat station so officers stay in public eye

WEST HAVEN — Police officers are stopping at Quest Academy on a regular basis, and everyone is happy about it.

After the Newtown, Conn., school shootings in December, Quest’s principal, Lani Rounds, was wracking her brain trying to figure out a way to have a bigger police presence in her charter school, when an idea came to her — invite them in.

So she did just that. On the last day of school before Christmas break, she sent out letters to local police departments and the Weber County Sheriff’s Office, inviting officers to the school’s “Cop Stop.”
