Freeway to close in both directions several nights in April to continue work on the new Shepard Lane interchange

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) will close Interstate 15 in Davis County for five nights to place beams on a new I-15 interchange in Farmington. 

I-15 between 200 North and Park Lane will be closed overnight in both directions during the following dates and times: 

• Friday, April 18: 10 p.m. to 8 a.m.
• Monday, April 21 through Thursday, April 24: 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
• Friday, April 25: 10 p.m. to 10 a.m.

All traffic will be detoured to U.S. Highway 89 and Main Street in Kaysville. Drivers should plan for heavy travel delays in the area during the closures. Nearby residents may experience increased noise, dust, truck traffic and vibration throughout this work. 

UDOT is building a new interchange at Shepard Lane to reduce congestion and enhance safety in the area. Not only will the interchange cross over Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) and Utah Transit Authority (UTA) tracks to create another connection to local roads, this project will also improve pedestrian and bike connectivity along Park Lane, and the ramps associated with I-15, US-89, and Legacy Parkway (SR-67). The new interchange is anticipated to open in late 2026. 

UDOT reminds drivers that construction schedules are weather-dependent and subject to change.
