PROVO, Utah (AP) -- The Utah Department of Transportation will close part of Interstate 15 to remove a section of the Center Street bridge on July 10 to make way for an expanded highway.
The freeway will close at 11 p.m. and is expected to open the following morning at 11:30 a.m.
During the closure, northbound traffic will exit at University Avenue in Provo.
Southbound traffic will divert through the ramps at the Center Street interchange.
Center Street will be closed between 900 West and 1600 West to accommodate the highway traffic coming through.
UDOT is adding two additional travel lanes on each side of the highway. That means the existing bridges will be too small for the new highway.
