EMIGRATION CANYON, Utah (August 2, 2025) — Construction work to maintain the pavement along Emigration Canyon Road begins August 4 and will continue through August 15. Work will occur in one- to three-mile phases throughout the canyon from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Delays and brief closures are expected. During micro surfacing and curing, pilot cars will guide traffic through temporary road closures, and flaggers will manage traffic. One lane of Emigration Canyon Road will be closed during the day to accommodate ongoing construction activities.

Visitors are asked to avoid Emigration Canyon Road for the duration of the projected 12-day project.

The Emigration Canyon Road is closed to cyclists during the duration of the construction project.

For residents who live along the canyon road, access to driveways and streets will be temporarily restricted while the asphalt cures. Driving or walking on uncured pavement will damage the new surface. Residents are asked to remain in their driveway until a pilot car arrives, and to follow all posted signage and crew instructions. Delays of 15 to 30 minutes are expected – please plan accordingly and allow extra travel time. Vehicles left in work zones will be towed.

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.
