Project Updates:

February 27, 2024
Dominion is set to resume work in the first week of March. During this phase, crews will temporarily close 7800 S and 8000 S, redirecting traffic to alternate routes via Redwood Road and 9000 S. Additionally, 7800 S and Gardner Mill Way will be closed, with detours guiding cars to 7000 S. This traffic arrangement will remain in effect for about 9 weeks to facilitate the installation of a new high-pressure gas line along 7800 S.

November 16, 2023
8120 South will be closed at 1300 West. Drivers will be detourted to 8040 South to the north of 8120 South starting Monday, November 27. This closure is expected to last 2-3 weeks. 

November 15, 2023
1300 W is now open in both directions between 9000 South and 8320 South.

November 3, 2023

What: Road Closure 
When: Friday, November 3, 2023
Where: 1300 West at 8120 South. (A loop detour will be in place to 8040 S.)
Time: Starting at 7 AM

Dominion Energy Construction crews will be boring under the UTA tracks starting on November 3rd. Boring is a crucial drilling technique in construction because it allows for the installation of vital infrastructure while minimizing disruption to the surface of the road. Residents can expect some noise and vibrations. Please follow posted signs and avoid the area if possible. Questions? Email: DominionEnergyWest.CorpComm@DominionEnergy.com.
