Sundt Completes Redwood Road, I-215 Interchange Project
Sundt Construction Inc. recently completed the I-215 and Redwood Road Interchange project in North Salt Lake, Utah, for the Utah Dept. of Transportation. The Sundt team resurfaced Redwood Road from 500 South in Bountiful to Center Street in North Salt Lake and Recreation Way to the county line. The team also reconstructed and widened four miles of the I-215 from 2100 N to I-15. The reconstruction of I-215 required placement of more than 25,000 cu yd of concrete.
Sundt then rebuilt and reconfigured the intersection of Redwood Road and Center Street, which included adding turning lanes, northbound lanes and signals. The team also fully reconstructed and widened Redwood Road between Center Street and I-215. The final piece of the project was the addition of a diverging diamond intersection and bridge over I-215.
