SR-177 (West Davis)
Welcome to SR-177 (West Davis)
SR-177 (also known as West Davis Highway) is a 16-mile highway that currently stretches from Farmington to West Point, with more than 10 miles of trails. UDOT is currently working on a project to extend the highway 2.5 miles north to 1800 North in West Point and extend the Emigrant Trail from 1300 North to 1800 North. This project will provide Utahns more choices in the way they travel.
Here's What's Happening
Night Work Begins September 28
Construction Crews begin night work starting Monday, September 28. Night work hours will run from 6:00 PM until 4:00 AM. Operations will consist of dirt hauling through the corridor to complete embankment and grading work. This is another effort to utilize the warm evenings and nights to maintain the project schedule. Night work will continue until late November, weather permitting.
Saturday Work Continues Until Late November
Continuing through the fall, construction crews will be working on Saturdays. This is an effort to utilize the warm weather and help keep the project on schedule. Construction hours will remain the same for Saturdays from 6:00 am through 6:00 PM. Saturday work will continue until late November, weather permitting.
Pile Driving Near 1300 North
Pile driving operation on 1300 North continues. Work will take place Monday through Saturday during daytime construction hours. Residents near the work area should expect increased construction noise and vibrations as crews complete foundation work for bridges and roadway structures.
Temporary Yield Signs for Construction Hauling Traffic
Temporary yield signs are in place at the following locations to support construction truck hauling:
- 300 North
- 800 North
- 1300 North
The temporary yield signs will be in place throughout the duration of construction.
Emigration Trail Closure Remains in Effect
Emigration Trail between 700 South and 300 North remains closed to the public.
This closure is necessary to accommodate:
- Utility installation and relocation work
- Increased truck hauling operations
- Pile driving activities
- Construction of the new trail alignment
Portions of the trail are anticipated to reopen by the end of November, though schedules may be adjusted based on construction progress and weather conditions.
Increased Dirt Hauling and Truck Traffic
As crews continue building out the project corridor, dirt hauling operations will be significant.
Please use caution when traveling near construction zones and be alert for trucks entering and exiting the work area. Motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists should follow all posted signs and traffic control devices.
Heavy truck traffic, in support of dirt hauling operations, is expected to continue through Spring 2027. Truck traffic will continue for the duration of construction activities.
