UDOT: Safety First for All Walks of Life Along I-80 By Jennifer Rupp CEG CORRESPONDENT
Utah’s first ever wildlife bridge is a key component to the safety-driven construction project on I-80 from Jeremy Ranch to Parleys Summit. The 322-ft. long bridge spans over I-80 west of Summit Park and will connect with miles of wildlife fencing to allow for safe passage of fauna in the area. The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) also will add a truck lane on westbound I-80 and a noise barrier near Jeremy Ranch to mitigate freeway noise for nearby residents. UDOT has secured federal funds for the entire project: $17 million for the truck lane, paving and fencing, and $5 million for the wildlife bridge. “UDOT’s goal is to ensure safety for drivers on Utah’s roads,” said John Montoya,
Ralph L. Wadsworth crews establish the temporary shoring pier to secure the hillside as they prepare to create the northern base of the wildlife overpass.
UDOT project manager. “This project will help truck traffic travel uphill, out of the way of other drivers, and will reduce vehicle and wildlife collisions in the area.” The overall project grade is 4.7 percent and tops out at 5 percent from Jeremy Ranch Subdivision to the crest of the summit. In recent years there has been an increasing number of crashes along this stretch of I80. Some of these crashes are due to the difference in speed between truckers trying to climb the hill and everyday motorists traveling through the area. The westbound climbing lane will help to give truckers a designated space to travel at safe speeds while freeing up other travel lanes for the general public. Other crashes are due to animals attempting to cross the interstate and being struck by drivers. The additional wildlife fencing, cattle guard and wildlife bridge are all attempts see BRIDGE page 6

New Freestanding ER Under Way in West Valley City MountainStar Healthcare and St. Mark’s Hospital are constructing Utah’s newest freestanding emergency room in West Valley City. After an evaluation of unmet needs in several communities that St. Mark’s serves, West Valley City emerged as the area that would most benefit from having prompt ER care readily available in the neighborhood. Located at 5668 W. Brud Drive, St. Mark’s West Valley ER is expected to open its doors in early 2019. “We are committed to better meeting healthcare needs throughout Utah by increasing access to quality care and ensuring an exceptional patient experience,” said Greg R. Angle, president of MountainStar Healthcare. “St. Mark’s West Valley ER is another example of strategic, responsible growth that meets, yet does not exceed, its community’s current needs.” MountainStar Healthcare and its parent company, HCA Healthcare, are funding the development of the
“We are committed to better meeting healthcare needs throughout Utah by increasing access to quality care and ensuring an exceptional patient experience.” Greg R. Angle MountainStar Healthcare
St. Mark’s West Valley ER. In addition to increasing tax revenues, this new medical facility will bring 40 to 45 new jobs to the city. The freestanding ER was designed by Devenney Group Architects and will be built by Ascent Construction, which is based in Farmington, Utah. Board-certified physicians from St. Mark’s Hospital will staff the freestanding ER 24/7. They will join experienced nurses in utilizing an advanced triage process to facilitate prompt patient care and short-
er wait times. In the fully equipped facility, this medical team will have the ability to quickly diagnose and treat life-threatening conditions like heart attacks and strokes, as well as other medical emergencies. “Our newest freestanding ERs will soon provide high-quality emergency care when needed in West Valley City, while significantly reducing wait times for patients and their families,” said Mark Robinson, CEO of St. Mark’s Hospital. “The fact that it is
conveniently located close to where people live and work will better serve West Valley City and surrounding neighborhoods.” The 10,500 sq. ft. West Valley ER features 10 treatment rooms, with one designated for trauma care and another set apart for behavioral health needs. Patients also will benefit from the immediate availability of onsite diagnostics and lab services as well as imaging services including computerized tomography (CT scan), ultrasound and X-ray.
West Valley ER is located just west of the city’s Fire Station 74. The ER’s medical staff will work closely with local first responders to provide the highest level of emergency care in the community. This collaboration also will help the responders to function even more efficiently and return to the field faster. For the most part, patients will return home after being treated at the freestanding ER. Those who need additional care will benefit from the streamlined transfer process established by MountainStar. A knowledgeable support team will efficiently coordinate their ongoing care and arrange for an ambulance to transport them to St. Mark’s Hospital or another hospital of their choice.

OGDEN, Utah (AP) A plan for an urban gondola rising above the city of Ogden is among the ideas advanced in a report commissioned but largely scuttled by county leaders who have spent about $500,000 on economic-development and public-relations contracts since 2015. The project is in consultant Stuart Reid’s Weber County Prosperity Plan, which the Standard-Examiner obtained a copy of with a public records request. But the commission apparently did not publicize Reid’s report, commissioned in 2015, and since has launched into a different project. That 2018 Weber County Strategic Economic Development Plan focuses on prosperity through higher incomes; attracting high quality job creation; forging regional development partnerships; and building up the advanced manufacturing, life sciences, defense and outdoor products sectors. Reid was an economic development leader for then-Ogden Mayor Matthew Godfrey until 2006, when talk about building an urban gondola system was increasing. While business and tourism supporters backed the plan, vehement opposition developed and the project eventually went nowhere during Godfrey’s administration. Critics fought the endeavor on environmen-
tal, aesthetic and other grounds. Reid said he included the gondola in his recent “audacious” plan because “it will provide an economic boom for the future of this county unlike any other program of prosperity.” The gondola “will spawn the construction of more hotels, restaurants, and entertainment outlets in the urban core than could have ever been expected,” the report said. But Reid said that a gondola “will only happen if there’s the political will to do it.” County Commissioner James Ebert agreed with the idea that Ogden “needs to be a destination,” and a gondola would be a unique attraction. “But it doesn’t necessarily have to be a gondola,” Ebert said. “Maybe we can create a cultural attraction — the arts, a symphony, a creative community — branding to put Ogden City on the map.” Ogden Mayor Mike Caldwell and some other city officials aren’t enthusiastic about a gondola revival. “In my opinion, this kind of thing is dead,” Caldwell said.

Rocky Mountain Power...
Utility Seeks Bids for Alternative Energy Construction Projects SALT LAKE CITY (AP) A utility company is seeking proposals for the construction of new alternative energy projects in Utah. The Salt Lake Tribune reported that Rocky Mountain Power said May 29, it is looking for bids for projects generating a total of 308,000 megawatt hours of power — enough for about 34,000 average homes in Utah — drawing on solar, wind and geothermal energy. Rocky Mountain Power said the projects are in response to a broad demand from residential and business customers for electricity from renewable sources. Any projects submitted to Rocky Mountain Power would require approval from the state Public Service Commission. Utility spokesman Spencer Hall said the utility expects to award bids by the end of 2018, with hopes of completing construction and bringing new energy sources to customers by the first part of 2020.

to keep these animals off the road and provide a safe space for them to cross. In coordination with this project, another crew will repave both directions of I-80 from Lambs Canyon to west of Kimball Junction in summer 2018. Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction Company LLC (“RLW”), a subsidiary of Sterling Construction Company Inc., was selected as prime contractor for the I-80 Jeremy Ranch project. RLW will be responsible for adding a passing lane 2.57-mi. long to improve traffic flow and safety with slower moving heavy hauls and semi-trucks climbing the summit. The project design also includes rehabilitating both eastbound and westbound structures of I-80 near Jeremy Ranch, replacement of parapets and overhangs and the repair of bridge decks and substructures — all tasked to RLW.
Comers Concrete LLC of Orem, Utah, will install a new drainage system and CIP Concrete Barrier. Skyview Excavation & Grading Inc. of Morgan will perform roadway excavation, granular borrow, UTBC and drainage work. Cache Valley Electric, based in Logan, will install highway lighting, signs and delineators and ATMS. Skyview will excavate 51,299 cu. yds. of roadway. Most of the onsite material will remain within the construction limits and will be used to build the berm for the noise wall. The wildlife crossing structure will require 1,491 cu. yds. of concrete and 12,545 tons of asphalt will be laid along the 2.57-mi. stretch. Construction began in April and will be finished in fall of this year. Work started with shifting westbound I-80 traffic closer to the median and installing temporary barrier between the interstate and the work zone between Jeremy

Ranch and Parleys Summit. Drivers were advised to plan ahead for nighttime work and lane restrictions during the first couple weeks of construction, with narrowed, shifted lanes on westbound
I-80. Following that, crews will work during daytime hours for most of the project, with overnight impacts as needed. “Delays have been minor so far, as all lane closures have taken
place overnight,” explained Tim Beery, UDOT communications manager of Region 2. “As part of the project, the contractor has been approved for four full closures of I80, two in each direction of travel, as they set girders for the wildlife crossing. We anticipate detouring drivers to I-84 as an alternate route, with up to 10 minutes of delays. The project team is doing their best to keep stakeholders up to date on what to expect from construction through mass media, email blasts and the UDOT Traffic app or smartphone.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
