Section of I-80 closed overnight for concrete repair

SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Department of Transportation has closed a section of I-80 leading to I-15 in Salt Lake City for concrete repairs. The closure is expected to last into Monday morning.

The closure is at the I-80 eastbound ramp leading to southbound I-15. UDOT says the extended closure time is to allow newly poured concrete ample time to cure before reopening the road to traffic.

The closure is expected to last until 4:00 a.m. Monday morning. Drivers on I-80 are being diverted onto the I-15 northbound ramp, with the detour leading them to turn around at the 600 North exit.
