The US-89; Antelope Drive Intersection Improvement Project connected Antelope Drive from its previous ending point in east Layton to U.S. Highway 89. The project was designed to improve greater east/west connectivity in Layton City. This project also added a new frontage road that serves as a collector for seven current access points on Highway 89. Construction included the removal of the old roadway as well as the base materials it was built on. Crews then built a completely new roadway integrating updated design and safety features, including frontage road, and a new intersection at Highway 89 and Antelope Drive. The project increased safety by closing 7 access points that are now served by the new frontage road and the new signal-controlled intersection at Highway 89. By completing this project, Acme was able to optimize mobility in Utah’s transportation system.
