A fatal crash on September 18 resulted in the closure of northbound I-15 at 2600 S in Woods Cross. UDOT Traffic reported that motorists were required to exit at 2600 S and could rejoin I-15 at 500 S.
During the closure, an alternate route was suggested using I-215 W to Legacy Hwy. Although all lanes were reported open later on September 19, heavy residual congestion remained in the area.
Travelers encountered limited signage regarding the freeway closure, according to a social media post by a user named Rusty Nail.
