Veyo Bridge Closure and Repairs UDOT

Public Information – Veyo Bridge Closure and Repairs

What Happened?

During a routine biennial inspection inspectors discovered some cracking in plates used to retrofit the bridge.

What does it mean to me?

  • THE BRIDGE WILL BE CLOSED from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm Saturday and Sunday, February 8th and 9th.
  • THE BRIDGE WILL BE CLOSED from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, February 10th through the 13th.
  • During hours when the bridge is open, traffic will be restricted to a single lane down the center of the bridge. An automated signal will control the alternating traffic over the bridge.
  • Vehicles with a gross weight of over 30 tons will continue to be restricted until repairs are completed Thursday afternoon and must use another route.
  • Some school bus times and routes may see alterations through Thursday.

What are we doing about it?

  • We are replacing the cracked plates to restore the bridge to its previous retrofitted condition so that both lanes will be open to regular traffic as quickly as possible.
  • Our motor carriers division is restricting oversized and overweight loads.
  • Out of an abundance of caution, we are alternating traffic on the center of the bridge to further reduce load stresses.
  • We are coordinating with emergency and public services during the closure period.
  • Our structural engineering team is conducting research to determine a long-term solution or replacement.

Horse Racing @ Legacy Park

Master Plan to Improve Equine and Rodeo Facilities at Legacy Park

PRESS RELEASE: Washington County to Develop Master Plan to Improve Equine and Rodeo Facilities at Legacy Park

Today, Washington County formally announces its plans to develop a master plan to improve and expand its equine and rodeo facilities at Legacy Park. Rodeo, Equine, and Livestock activities are deeply rooted in the heritage of Utah’s Dixie and as this community has grown so has the demand and use of Legacy Park and its equine facilities. This increased demand and use of Legacy Park necessitates that Washington County respond in kind.

During the preliminary steps of developing a master plan, Washington County identified safety and infrastructure needs, including electrical, drainage, water, sewage, and gas, with the most immediate needs being electrical and drainage. Many of these infrastructure needs will need to be re-engineered and rebuilt from the ground up. To safely facilitate some of these infrastructure needs the horse stalls will need to be vacated by June 30, 2025.

Washington County is engaging in this master plan in order to meet the growing needs of Legacy Park. The master plan will not include plans for soccer fields, housing, or any form of commercial not consistent with Legacy Park’s public purpose. Washington County recognizes Legacy Park serves this community and with that in mind, Washington County intends to engage the community throughout the master plan process.

Legacy Park and its facilities have served this community for decades and in order to continue to serve this community for decades more certain improvements and renovations identified during the master plan process must be facilitated.
