2025 Construction Updates & Notices

Microsurfacing Notice:

2025 Pavement Maintenance Project – Microsurfacing | August 4–15

Microsurfacing for the Pavement Maintenance Project will begin August 4 and may continue through August 15, with work occurring in 1–3 mile phases from 7 AM to 5 PM. During this time, access to driveways and streets will be temporarily restricted while the asphalt cures—please plan ahead, as vehicles left in the work zone will be towed. Driving or walking on uncured pavement will damage the new surface.

 

Delays and brief closures are expected. Pilot cars will guide traffic when safe, and flaggers will manage traffic. One lane of Emigration Canyon Road will be closed during the day to accommodate ongoing construction.

 

During microsurfacing and curing, pilot cars will guide traffic through temporary road closures along Emigration Canyon Road. Please wait in your driveway until a pilot car arrives, and follow all traffic signage and crew instructions. Delays of 15 to 30 minutes are expected, so plan ahead and allow extra travel time.

 

Please visit https://emigration.utah.gov for contractor notices, project updates, and the most current schedule, as changes may occur throughout the duration of the work.

​

Thank you for your patience and cooperation during this important improvement project. 

 

If you have any questions or concerns, please call 385-602-7955, email residents@americanpave.com, or visit www.americanpave.com and click on “Resident Notice” for more information.
