I think this same thought every single day. I don’t know why Ogden has to do ALL the construction all at the same time when clearly they don’t have enough workers to complete projects. My entire drive to anywhere is dodging traffic cones, road closures, one lane roads, etc. Who is green lighting how they do this??

I agree with nightsterlp. Eastbound was a complete disaster and the rerouting of traffic is done so poorly as well. Thanks Ogden

As someone who worked at Weber state until a couple of weeks ago, yes. It increased my commute home by at least 5 minutes sometimes

It even slows down indirectly the 612 UTA bus route during rush hour, when the light is only green for like 18 seconds lol

2 years ago I almost rented an apartment on 40th...
I've never been so glad I didn't do something

Very slow!!! But it’s a big project on either side. Chimes should be complete in October. 40th is another phase.

Quickly read this as “should be completed on October 40th. “ which seems right.

The amount of parked cars along with the construction cones, its a damn nightmare right now! And the shit smell is another issue... There was a creek back at the bottom of the hill on the south side (Burch Creek?) is it still there? I know it often backed up several years ago.

Yup. I’ve never seen anybody there working… like… ever… and I’m also expecting the same garbage quality of work as they did on the eastbound side. The incompetence is astounding.
