Overview

Each year, Salt Lake City reconstructs numerous streets, made possible by the 2018 voter-approved Funding Our Future bond. Street improvement project locations are determined by the pavement condition and funding rotates through all seven districts. Many of these reconstruction projects also consider complete street elements to improve safety for all modes of travel.

Generally, construction will occur between April and October each year. While each location diff­ers, project improvements typically include asphalt repaving, sidewalk, curb, gutter and/or pedestrian ramp rehabilitation, and minor storm drain repair. Local street reconstructions are anticipated to last approximately 2-4 weeks. Major street reconstructions are more extensive and vary in length. Area residents can expect construction noise, dust, and vibration during normal working hours. Vehicle and pedestrian routes may be detoured but access to properties will be maintained whenever possible.  The project team will coordinate with individual residents where drive approaches require replacement.

The Pavement Management Team determines the optimal maintenance strategy for the 1,850 lane miles of streets. Conditions are evaluated through field inspections and pavement surveys. Use the pavement condition map to view estimated conditions of City roads.

These projects are funded through the 2018 voter-approved Funding Our Future street reconstruction bond. On November 6, 2018, Salt Lake City voters approved the $87 million Funding Our Future Streets Reconstruction Bond. This funding is allowing the City to begin addressing our most deteriorating streets and, when paired with new sales tax revenue for streets maintenance, enables us to prolong the life of our entire street network.
