Construction Update (March 2023)
- 300 W to West Temple: The north side of 900 S from West Temple to 300 W is now closed to traffic and the south side of 900 S is open to eastbound traffic only. The westbound lane will be closed the full extent until June/July 2023.
- State Street to 200 E and 500 E to 700 E: Asphalt has been removed from the south side of the roadway in both locations and will be replaced when temperatures allow. Business access is being maintained. Concrete work is planned in this area through winter, intermittently as conditions allow.
- 200 E to 500 E and 700 E to Lincoln St (945 E): Work is anticipated to begin in the 200 to 500 E section in April with 700 E to Lincoln Street following through the summer.
- The 900 South entrance to Liberty Park will be reconstructed in April, which will detour park traffic to 1300 South temporarily.
- The 9th & 9th Intersection reconstruction work is anticipated to begin in June or July.
- The project team is in regular coordination with the Central 9th and ELPCO council leadership to share information and manage concerns. The 9th & 9th intersection reconstruction and 60 day closure is anticipated to occur in June or July 2023. A broad public outreach campaign is planned when schedules and phasing around this closure are confirmed. For updates, please email info@slc900south.com or call 844-297-6884.

Project Overview
Salt Lake City will reconstruct 900 South from 900 West to Lincoln Street (945 East) starting in 2021. As part of the project, the 9-Line Trail corridor will be an attractive, safe, and inclusive place for neighbors, businesses, and street users. A new trail will also introduce a walking and bicycling connection between east and west Salt Lake City, linking neighborhoods, business districts, and cultural destinations.
Phase One: 300 West to West Temple (Central 9th)
We recommend viewing the Project Hub below in its own window on a larger screen like a computer or tablet. If you are viewing it on a mobile device, turn your screen to landscape view. Also the Hub works better if you click the links and images within it instead of using the side arrows.
Phase Two: 900 West to Lincoln Street (945 East)

Download the traffic and parking study information for this project below. They include the data on the 2021-2023 project’s impact on vehicular traffic and ideas for improving parking management. Note that a caveat on pages 3 and 17 explains that the proposed strategies and recommendations would only be possible with improved organization, finance structures, and staffing related to parking (and related infrastructure, management, and policies).

Project Timeline
Project Timeline
Construction began on the section of 900 South from 300 West to West Temple in summer 2021. Construction on the rest of the corridor will continue until summer 2023. However, construction will be staged to only impact portions of the corridor at any given time in order to reduce construction impacts to the community.
