About this project

Incorporating newly accepted techniques by UDOT, four total bridge replacements were performed on I-80 at Mountain Dell Interchange and Lambs Canyon Interchange near Salt Lake City in Parley’s Canyon.
The design-build team of Wadsworth Bros. Construction and Stanley Consultants removed and replaced four bridges in just 37 hours.
The two eastbound bridge replacements were completed in 16 hours.
A regional construction magazine reported it to be the fastest-known bridge replacement for two structures in North America.
The $9.4 million project was completed so quickly that local residents and businesses might not have known of the brief I-80 detours if not for the extensive public announcements.
