I-15/US 93 Garnet interchange to be rebuilt; 93 to be 4-laned

Slightly bumping this thread since I was just out there and drove through the DDI...

They were still doing finishing touches at the DDI when I drove through, so there was only one lane open for north and southbound traffic. And I noticed NDOT has included art deco on the overpass along with calling out Interstate 15 (much like they did for I-11).

The four lane section stretches about five miles to the northwest of the DDI and maintains a 70 mph speed limit. The southbound lanes also span Grand Valley Parkway to allow for free movement for northbound traffic to the side road, which is a nice feature.

Thanks for the update and posting some pics.

Interesting to see a DDI without a signal at the crossover. I'm curious if they're going to install signals at the US 95/Kyle Canyon Rd (SR 157) DDI currently under construction.

Also interesting from that second pic: "one way" arrows (which are very common in California) used on the pavement at the crossover. The pavement marking detail for these has been in the NDOT Standard Plans for some time, but I have never seen them actually used on an NDOT highway before now.

No problem!

I didn't see any indication of signal installations when I drove it on March 4th, though it still looks like there is quite of bit of work to be done. Also to report, traffic was reduced to one lane in each direction along U.S. 95 while the majority of the road work was being done on the approach and ramps. I was only able to get a couple of photos at the future interchange:

Just thought to post these here since you had asked...

Now back on topic...
