According to a Tuesday morning press release from the Utah Department of Transportation, southbound I-15 will experience closures from Kaysville to Farmington.

“Beginning on Thursday, Oct. 30, southbound I-15 between 200 North (Kaysville) and Park Lane (Farmington) will be closed from 10:15 p.m. to 5 a.m.,” the release said. “This closure will occur again, at the same times, on Nov. 1 and Nov 2. During these closures, crews will remove overhead signs.

“Traffic will be detoured to the Park Lane interchange via 200 North and Main Street.”

UDOT Senior Communication Manager Mitchell Shaw told the Standard-Examiner in an email he wasn’t sure of the number of signs being removed and replaced, but he said the activity is part of a larger ongoing project in the area.

“This is part of our Shepard Lane Interchange project. UDOT is building a new interchange along I-15 at Shepard Lane in Farmington,” he said. “The new interchange will help alleviate congestion, connect communities, and improve safety for all modes of transportation. Improvements included as part of this project include:

• “A new diamond interchange on I-15 at Shepard Lane
• A new noise wall on the east side of I-15 between Shepard Lane and Park Lane
• A direct connection from 1500 West to the Shepard Lane interchange
• Construction of a new roadway between Innovator Drive and 1500 West
• Construction of new shared-use facilities at Shepard Lane and Park Lane
• North- and southbound auxiliary lanes between Shepard Lane and Park Lane
• Removal of the existing Shepard Lane bridge at I-15″

He added that the project will help more than just motorists.

“This interchange will improve walking and biking facilities over I-15 at Shepard Lane and along Park Lane,” he said. “Multi-modal improvements at Shepard Lane include the construction of a 10-foot shared-use trail on the north side of Shepard Lane and sidewalks on the south side. Park Lane multi-modal improvements include a new multi-modal path connecting FrontRunner facilities on the west side of I-15 to Park Lane east of US-89.”

The project is expected to be completed sometime in late 2026.
