Kimball Junction Environmental Impact Statement
Project Overview
UDOT is conducting an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to improve regional and local mobility at the I-80 and SR-224 interchange at Kimball Junction and on SR-224 from Kimball Junction through the Olympic Parkway intersection in Summit County.
The alternatives being carried forward in the EIS include:

Summit County Improved Project
Project Overview
UDOT is working on a four-fold project that encompasses areas around I-80 at Kimball Junction, the westbound US-40 to westbound I-80 flyover, eastbound and westbound US-40 (between SR-248 and I-80), and the SR-248 interchange. Construction crews will improve drainage and ride quality, reduce congestion, and preserve the underlying infrastructure of asphalt and concrete roadways.
Work began in June 2024 and is currently in a wintertime suspension. Elements of the project at the US-40/SR-248 interchange require warmer temperatures. Work to place a surface treatment at the interchange will take place in the spring of 2025.

Jeremy Ranch Bridges Reconstruction
Project Overview
UDOT will replace the eastbound and westbound I-80 bridges at the Jeremy Ranch interchange in Summit County. The goal of this project is to replace aging infrastructure and provide a smoother ride for drivers. These bridges are key travel routes that will require innovative approaches to minimize user impacts during construction.
Both bridges will be replaced using the Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) method. This means that the new bridges will be built next to the existing freeway and then slid into place after their construction is completed. This project will require short-term closures of I-80 and Homestead Road but will reduce long-term traffic impacts overall.
Construction is anticipated to begin in late 2025 and continue through late 2027.

Heber Valley Corridor Environmental Impact Statement
Project Overview
UDOT is conducting an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to improve regional and local mobility on US-40 from SR-32 to US-189 and provide opportunities for non-motorized transportation while allowing Heber City to meet its vision for the historic town center.
