Plans finalized for I-15 widening, city of Washington interchange

WASHINGTON, Washington County — By December 2023, drivers could be taking Exit 11 off Interstate 15 onto the city of Washington's Main Street.

Lee Cabell, principal at Horrocks Engineers, told the Washington City Council at Wednesday's meeting construction on the I-15 widening and interchange project is slated to begin in March 2023.

Cabell also showed those in attendance the project plans, which call for I-15 to be widened to three lanes in both north and south directions between Exits 10 and 13. In addition, a new interchange will be added at milepost 11 giving travelers the option to exit the freeway onto Washington's Main Street.

In addition to landscaping and beautification planning at the interchange intersection, planning crews worked with city officials to implement freeway overpass and noise barrier designs that blend in with local scenery.
