Eagle Mountain City continues to make progress on the Old Airport Road extension project.
About a mile and a half of the road alignment is now paved, according to the City’s Engineering department. This update marks a key step in improving Eagle Mountain’s infrastructure and transportation network.
Eagle Mountain is investing around $9 million in the extension of Old Airport Rd.
In the coming weeks, the installation of a culvert and wildlife crossing is set to begin. This feature is expected to further consider the City’s wildlife conservation efforts by providing a safe crossing for local wildlife.
The design process is also underway for the completion of the roadway that will extend across SR-73 to the new middle school.
This phase of the project will include the installation of a new traffic signal at Old Airport Rd.’s intersection with Cory Wride Memorial Highway, aimed at improving traffic flow and ensuring safer routes for students and residents.
The extension of Old Airport Rd. is anticipated for completion in the summer of 2025.
