SUMMIT COUNTY, Utah — The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) will continue its resurfacing project on Marsac Avenue throughout the rest of the month.

Crews are resurfacing Marsac Avenue in Summit County from the Wasatch County line to the Marsac roundabout at Mile Post 4.65.

“The project objectives are aimed at preserving the life of the roadway by preventing the deterioration of the road surface and address roadway imperfections,” said the UDOT project description. “Additional work includes adding rumble strips with a brake check area to enhance motorist safety, as well as rebuild Hillside Ave. pedestrian ramps to be ADA compliant.”
