2300 West Closes at 2100 North in Lehi This Weekend for Freeway Sewer Work

UDOT will close 2300 West at 2100 North in Lehi from 9 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13 to 5 a.m. Monday, Nov. 16, 2026, and cut eastbound 2100 North to one lane.

Drivers in north Lehi will lose one more piece of the road network this weekend. The Utah Department of Transportation plans to fully close 2300 West at 2100 North from 9 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13, 2026, until 5 a.m. Monday, Nov. 16, while crews finish sewer work at the intersection, KUTV reported, citing UDOT. Eastbound 2100 North will drop to one lane through the same stretch. The Jordan River Trail under 2100 North is expected to reopen for the weekend and close again Monday morning.

What UDOT says is closing

UDOT told KUTV that crews will be working at the intersection of 2100 North and 2300 West starting Friday at 9 p.m., with the work expected to continue through 5 a.m. Monday. During that time, 2300 West will be fully closed between the frontage roads, and eastbound traffic on 2100 North will be cut to a single lane.

Traffic on 2300 West will be turned around in both directions, at Ashton Boulevard and at 3600 West, according to UDOT. The agency asked drivers to avoid the area and use an alternate route if they can. "If you have to drive in the area, expect delays and use caution when driving," UDOT said in the statement KUTV published.

UDOT said the closure lets crews finish sewer work at the intersection that started the week before. It also said the work depends on the weather and the schedule is subject to change, so check UDOT's live traffic map before heading out Friday night or over the weekend.

Who it affects

The intersection sits in the middle of UDOT's 2100 North freeway construction zone, between I-15 and the Jordan River. 2300 West is one of the north-south routes that cross 2100 North in that stretch, so drivers who use it to reach Thanksgiving Point, the neighborhoods north of 2100 North or the frontage roads will need another way around for the weekend.

The timing keeps the full closure mostly to nights and a weekend, when commuter traffic is lighter. Monday's 5 a.m. reopening is scheduled ahead of the morning rush. Even so, Saturday traffic in the Thanksgiving Point area can be heavy, and the eastbound lane reduction on 2100 North continues all weekend.

The trail opens, briefly

There's one piece of good news for people on foot and bikes. KUTV reported that the Jordan River Trail under 2100 North is expected to open temporarily this weekend before closing again Monday morning.

That section of the trail has been closed for much of the year. In April, UDOT closed the part of the Jordan River Parkway Trail that runs under 2100 North so crews could armor the riverbanks with rock before building the freeway, KSL reported. UDOT spokesman John Gleason told KSL at the time that the detour route "will just go up and run parallel to 2100 North and to the river right there, and then cut over on 2300 West, and then back on to the trail again." Crews paved that detour overnight in early April, KUTV reported then, and nearby residents complained to the station about the noise.

Because the detour uses 2300 West, trail users should expect the street portion of it to be affected by this weekend's closure. The temporary reopening of the underpass is the way through. If you use the trail Monday morning, plan for the underpass to be closed again.

The project behind the closures

The work is part of UDOT's 2100 North Freeway project, a 2.8-mile freeway on 2100 North (SR-194) that will connect I-15 with Mountain View Corridor. UDOT announced the start of construction on March 18, 2026, and puts the cost at $621 million. It expects construction to continue through late 2028, a completion date its project page calls preliminary and subject to change.

According to UDOT, the project includes:

UDOT estimates that once the freeway opens, east-west commuters will save about 12 minutes in each direction at peak times, and that it will take pressure off Redwood Road (SR-68), which UDOT calls one of Utah County's most congested corridors. "As Utah County continues to thrive, we are investing in projects like this to keep Utah moving," UDOT Region Three Director Rob Clayton said when construction started.

The freeway is one of several projects in what UDOT describes as nearly $1.4 billion of investment in northwest Utah County. UDOT opened a four-mile segment of Mountain View Corridor between 2100 North and Porter Rockwell Boulevard last December.

Other 2100 North work to know about

This weekend's closure comes on top of the long-running lane shift on I-15 itself. Southbound I-15 at 2100 North (Exit 282) moved into a new lane pattern earlier this month, and UDOT expects it to stay in place through May 2027, as we reported on Nov. 3. Our I-15 Lehi lane shift report has the details on that change and on overnight closures at the interchange.

Lehi has other projects underway too. Funding for the SR-92 pedestrian bridge was approved this week, as we reported in our SR-92 bridge story.

What to do this weekend

The bigger picture

Construction on 2100 North is now in its first year, with two more to go by UDOT's schedule. Closures like this weekend's, short and timed for nights and weekends, are likely to keep coming as crews move utilities and build bridges.
