Crews are performing concrete work on the west side of 1200 East, moving from 300 South toward 500 South, according to a notice on the Salt Lake City website. Once this phase is finished, crews will shift to the east side of the street, starting at 300 South and moving south.
The reconstruction project involves the full replacement of the asphalt roadway and improvements to the median to enhance safety and drainage. Additionally, curb ramps will be reconstructed to comply with current ADA standards. Other planned improvements include replacing sidewalks, driveway approaches, curbs, and gutters as needed.
During construction, residents can expect daytime noise, dust, and intermittent access limitations from Monday to Friday. On-street parking restrictions will also be in effect. New concrete infrastructure, including driveway approaches, requires a seven-day cure time. While garbage collection will continue as normal, residents will be notified before driveway access is interrupted.
Work is scheduled to continue through October 2026, followed by asphalt removal and replacement. Landscaping remediation for park strips is expected to occur in spring 2027. The project team intends to restore any disturbed landscaping with similar species and size, and will coordinate repairs if irrigation infrastructure is damaged during construction.
