Intersection will be in final configuration, traffic switch Thursday

Jackson, Wyo. The Wyoming Department of Transportation, along with contract crews from Ames Construction, Inc., will implement a traffic shift on Wyoming State Highway 390 on Thursday, June 27, weather permitting. The shift will move traffic to the permanent configuration of the intersection at Wyoming State Highway 22.

 What to expect:

·     Timing: The shift is expected to be in place by 6 a.m. on Thursday, June 27.

·    Traffic Shift: Crews will remove the temporary traffic barriers put in place on June 15 and traffic will start using the permanent lanes.

• Delays: Short delays are possible overnight on Wednesday, June 26, and early in the morning on Thursday, June 27 as crews make the switch.
• Merging Reminder: Eastbound drivers on WYO 22 using the bypass lane will still merge with traffic turning left from WYO 390 at the traffic light.

 Additionally, WYDOT expects to open the completed south half of the new bridge for one lane of traffic in each direction on Tuesday, July 2. Demolition of the old span will be conducted in stages and should not impact traffic flow.

 Unforeseen circumstances may necessitate adjustments to the schedule. WYDOT remains committed to keeping the public informed. WYDOT prioritizes the safety of all travelers and construction crews. Please reduce speed while traveling through the construction zone and pay close attention to adjusted traffic patterns, signage, and flaggers’ instructions.
