A daytime lane closure will take place in Eagle Mountain along Pole Canyon Boulevard at Lake Mountain Road starting Monday, May 11. The closure is scheduled to continue through Friday, May 15.
Each day during this period, the road will be closed from 8:30 AM to 2:15 PM and again from 3:15 PM to 9:00 PM. A brief reopening will occur between 2:15 PM and 3:15 PM to accommodate school pick-up.
The lane closure is required to safely construct a new waterline that will connect to the upcoming water tank facility for Eagle Mountain City. This infrastructure project aims to improve system capacity, pressure consistency, and fire flow availability.
According to city officials, this connection is critical for maintaining reliable water service for current residents and supporting future growth. Without this work, the system could face increased strain and reduced reliability as development continues.
The closure allows construction crews to work efficiently and safely within the roadway corridor. Officials noted that attempting to maintain full traffic access during utility installation would increase safety risks for workers and the public, extend the construction duration, and raise project costs.
Traffic control measures will be implemented following City standards to maintain safe travel through the area. Efforts will be made to limit disruptions during peak travel times where feasible.
Eagle Mountain Assistant City Engineer David Salazar said that while short-term inconvenience is expected, the improvement ensures long-term reliability of the water system, enhances fire protection, and supports responsible growth. He stated that the benefits of the project far outweigh the temporary impacts associated with construction.
