Utah Construction and Design Magazine recently awarded the City of West Jordan’s 8600 South Bridge as 2024’s Outstanding Highway Project of the Year. This new bridge over Mountain View Corridor connects 6000 West and 5600 West and connects the community to Copper Hills High School and Ron Wood Park. It is 315 ft. long with 10 ft. sidewalks on both sides with ornamental fencing on the parapet to protect pedestrians. 

The I-15 Nephi Bridge Rehabilitation Project received the AGC of Utah’s Transportation Project of the Year in the $5 million to $15 million category. UDOT and the Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction Team were honored for their commitment to safety, quality, schedule, and innovation on this project. This project replaced two bridge decks, repaired seven bridge structures, and rehabilitated 13,500 square yds. of concrete, covering a total of 44 lane miles of I-15 through Nephi.
