Granite of Watsonville, Calif., announced that it was awarded an approximately $65 million contract by the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) to begin Phase 2 of the State Route 30 Improvement Project in Logan, Utah.
Project funding will come from UDOT and federal money.
"This project is a strategic win for Granite as it strengthens our ongoing relationship with UDOT," said Jason Klaumann, Granite's vice president of regional operations. "The successful completion of Phase 1 in 2023 positioned us as the low bidder for Phase 2, ensuring our structures, pipe and earthwork crews will remain engaged through late 2024 and most of the 2025 season. Our team is excited to continue working with UDOT Region 1 and deliver these critical improvements for the Logan community."
The SR 30 corridor accommodates a diverse traffic mix, including the traveling public, farm equipment, horses, cyclists and runners.
Improvements will include a 12-ft.-wide multi-use path with a cast-in-place concrete box underpass, wider shoulders, turning lanes and advanced warning signs for railroad crossings. Also, the project will feature two new precast box culverts and widening one concrete girder bridge to accommodate the Logan River / Cutler Marsh area.
Key elements of the project include:
Multi-use path: A 12-ft.-wide path for pedestrians and cyclists.
Roadway enhancements: Wider shoulders and turning lanes for improved traffic flow.
Safety features: Advanced warning signs for railroad crossings.
Environmental considerations: Installation of two new precast box culverts and the widening of one concrete girder bridge.
Infrastructure upgrades: Guardrail, ATMS, lighting, signalization, storm drain, water, sewer and landscaping improvements.
Phase 2 is expected to be completed in December 2025.
