Drivers heading westbound on 200 West in Draper can no longer reach Bangerter Highway.
The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has permanently shut down the westbound 200 West approach to Bangerter Highway as part of a safety project along the corridor, according to the agency's project page, updated Nov. 10.
The closure is permanent, not a temporary construction measure.
UDOT's SR-154 project, running from I-15 to 200 West, improves traffic operations and adds capacity at the northbound I-15 off-ramp to Bangerter Highway. The work includes ramp widening, access modifications and updated striping.
Construction crews are still active in the area. UDOT said crews will perform work on the shoulder of I-15 near the Bangerter Highway off-ramp and along 200 West. Residents and drivers nearby may experience intermittent noise and vibration. Additional traffic shifts and lane closures are possible while work continues.
Draper City shared information about the project on X on Nov. 11, noting the safety improvements and access changes along the Bangerter corridor.
The UDOT project page lists "Summer 2026" under its schedule heading, but it is unclear whether that refers to a start date, a target completion or something else. The page was last updated Nov. 10, and construction is ongoing. UDOT notes that schedules are subject to change due to weather and material availability.
Residents with questions can call UDOT's project hotline at 855-663-6800 or email [email protected]. Weekly construction updates are available by emailing that address with "Weekly Updates" in the subject line.
