"Commuters in Eagle Mountain are facing a double dose of road construction.
The intersection known as the four corners in Saratoga Springs is a major route for motorists to and from Eagle Mountain. Redwood Road and State Road 73 in the area both are under construction. Both roads are being widened.
"It takes 15 more minutes, 15 to half an hour longer," one motorist said.
But Scott Thompson of the Utah Department of Transportation says when it's all completed, today's delays will lead to a much better drive.
"(They've) got a new Wal-Mart going in out there. You have a lot more people coming back and forth," he said.
Redwood Road is being widened from Bangerter Highway on the north to 400 South in Saratoga Springs on the south. It should be finished by this fall.
The S.R. 73 work should be wrapped up in June." ksl.com
