Council asks staff to contact UDOT after morning lane closures on Redwood Road
Council members reported that UDOT closed lanes on Redwood Road during morning commute periods, including placement of cones and turn‑lane changes that blocked left turns and caused extended signal cycles during peak traffic. Council members said closures occurred before an agreed‑upon 9 a.m. start time and produced substantial backups; they described repeated occurrences on Redwood Road and at Pioneer Crossing and Mountain View work zones.

City staff said they would reach out to the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) to ask that UDOT adhere to previously agreed timing for lane closures and to update standard operating procedures so that closed turn lanes do not prevent traffic from making permitted turns (e.g., by ensuring sensor/camera adjustments or temporary signal timing changes during closures). Council members requested a prompt response and asked staff to report back.

No formal vote was recorded; council direction to staff was taken as an administrative action to contact UDOT and request remedial steps.
