Bangerter Highway will be construction central this summer

The Utah Department of Transportation is spending $88 million this summer on nine separate projects on Bangerter Highway — stretching from Salt Lake City International Airport to 9000 South. Projects range from adding a bridge to allow Bangerter to pass over 7800 South, to adding a new "diverging diamond" intersection at SR-201 and adding "continuous flow intersections" (now used at 3500, 4700 and 5400 South) to help eliminate left-turn cycles at 3100, 4100, 6200 and 7000 South.
