Current Impacts
The City of West Jordan, in cooperation with the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), has completed Phase 1 widening of 1300 West between 9000 South and 9400 South.
Phase 2, from 9000 South to 7800 South, design is underway. To provide all the design elements in Phase 2, the city has to acquire some private property. Portions of the road were not as complete as others (see images). Property acquisitions are ongoing and if your property is impacted you will be contacted by a Right-of-Way agent. Not all properties will be impacted.
The City will be completing the full replacement of the 40-year old water line in the Phase 2 area before roadway reconstruction occurs in summer 2025.
Dominion Energy is currently working on a project to replace existing gas lines on 1300 W. Find updates for that project here. If you have questions or concerns please contact Jared Minnesota with Dominion Energy: 801-548-5842.
Project Updates:
December 4, 2023 – Storm drain installation along the east side of the road is ongoing through this week. Traffic will be reduced to one lane around the work and controlled by a flagger. Motorists are advised to pay attention to traffic control and slow down. Crews will be striping the road and installing signs through next week. Crews will install permanent fencing and landscaping along the corridor this week. Beginning today, December 4, crews will begin the installation of curb, gutter, and driveways for the last remaining properties along the east side of 1300 West.
November 16, 2023 – Crews have finished pouring new curb and gutter, in most locations, on the east side. Beginning November 15, crews will be removing asphalt on the east side in preparation for paving later on in the week. Beginning as early as Monday, November 20, crews will stripe the road and begin installation of signs. Beginning as early as Monday, November 27, crews will begin installation of permanent fencing along the corridor.
October 16, 2023 – Paving on the west side of 1300 West has been postponed until Friday, October 20, due to product availability. Once paving is complete, crews will shift traffic to the west side with one lane in each direction on Saturday, October 21. Motorists are advised to pay attention to a new traffic pattern. Beginning Saturday, October 21, crews will shift traffic and begin moving to the east side of 1300 West in preparation for concrete removals and utility excavation on Monday, October 23.
October 11, 2023 – Crews will finish curb and gutter this week in preparation for paving asphalt on the west side of 1300 West on Monday, October 16. Once paving is complete, crews will shift traffic to the west side with one lane in each direction on Tuesday, October 17. Beginning Tuesday, October 17, crews will begin work on the east side with concrete removals in preparation for utility work.
September 25, 2023 – Crews are finishing up relocating hydrants and replacing water meters through this week. Some water shutoffs are needed for this work and West Jordan Public Utilities will be notifying affected homeowners. Crews are pouring new concrete curb and gutter along the west side of 1300 West and will finish up next week. Beginning as early as Wednesday, September 27, crews will begin work on installing drain pipes along the east side of 1300 West. During this work, the southbound traffic lane will shift slightly to allow for drainage installation.
August 23, 2023 – Crews will intermittently need to reduce 1300 West to one lane controlled by flaggers to create enough room for crews to saw-cut the road in preparation for excavation along the west side. One lane in each direction will be maintained when possible as well as pedestrian access.
