What We’ve Done
Over the last several weeks, crews have been working to finish concrete curb, road striping, and putting down asphalt slurry seal coating in the new bikeway between 600 South and 900 South.
There are just a few things left to do before the bikeway can be fully opened this year.
What is left?
Bicycle Signal Installation
We will need to install bicycle signals and push buttons for crossing at each intersection of the bikeway as one of the final steps before fully opening it. These are expected to be installed over the next few weeks.
Touch-up Work
Now that the paint and asphalt are down, the crew will come through in mid-October to complete some finer detail make sure that the bikeway provides a smooth, safe, and comfortable ride.
Bikeway Is Not Open Yet
For your safety, and to allow crews to finish up their work, please stay off of the bikeway until work is fully completed. Stay tuned for more information about it’s opening in the coming weeks!
Overview
Salt Lake City is designing a protected bikeway on 300 West between 900 South and 400 South to enhance safety, comfort, and connectivity for all road users. The bikeway will integrate with existing and future bike infrastructure, linking the 300 West and 9-Line shared-use paths to the upcoming 400 South Viaduct Trail and protected bike lanes on 300 South. Rather than reconstructing the roadway, curbs, or sidewalks, the bikeway will be designed within the existing footprint of the roadway.
Project scope change
The 300 West Bikeway was originally planned to go from 900 South to 300 South. However, the section between 300 South and 400 South is owned by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT). At UDOT’s request, this section of the bikeway was removed from the project.
