NORTH SALT LAKE, Utah (AP) -- The final bridge replacement for the Interstate 15 Express-Link project is near completion.

The U.S. 89 bridge over I-15 from North Salt Lake will be closed Monday and Tuesday to switch traffic onto a new bridge. The Beck Street on ramp to I-15 will also be closed. The U.S. 89 bridge will be reduced to one lane until January as crews finish final construction work.

As part of the project, the Utah Department of Transportation also replaced bridges at Beck Street, 1000 North and 800 North.

The $125 million Express-Link project spans more than 4 miles and is scheduled for completion by next summer.
