OGDEN — The Utah Department of Transportation released its recommendation for the West Davis Corridor on Thursday.

OGDEN — Warmer temperatures across the Wasatch Front, accompanied by orange cones near the side of the road, can only mean one thing: Road construction season is here.

OGDEN — Utah Department of Transportation officials say they will bend their own rules to help those impacted by the Ogden Canyon waterline project. As Ogden city continues work to replace the 100-year-old waterline that meanders through the canyon, nightly road closures, delays, water shutdowns and plenty of congestion on the narrow arterial have inconvenienced Ogden Valley businesses and residents for much of the past five months.

OGDEN — As work to replace a 100-year-old waterline in Ogden Canyon marches into its fifth month, businesses want potential patrons to know one thing: They’re still open.

The project has included nightly closures, water shutdowns and plenty of congestion on the narrow canyon road.

Ogden Water Utility Manager Kenton Moffett said construction crews have faced a lot of unusual constraints during the project.

OGDEN — Ogden Canyon will be completely closed every night for the next three months.

As the city continues repair work on a century-old water pipeline that runs through the canyon, full-night closures of State Road 39 through the canyon will begin Wednesday.

The West Davis Corridor study team will visit the three cities that will be affected by the most recent changes to the state’s heavily debated road proposal.

In early October, after considering information from stakeholders in the project and after a more detailed analysis of area wetlands, the Utah Department of Transportation made changes to the road proposal in select areas of Farmington, West Point and Hooper.

To discuss those changes in detail, the West Davis team will visit city councils from the three cities during the next month.

KAYSVILLE — A large group of residents in the southern part of this city want to make sure state transportation officials know that the potential impact of the West Davis Corridor is personal and does matter.

A group of nearly 200 people gathered Thursday night at approximately 350 East and 950 North to hold a short rally and vocalize their opposition to one of two options proposed by the Utah Department of Transportation for the highway, which could link Centerville to Ogden.
