Pioneer Crossing

Well, construction will FINALLY begin on an East-West road out of West Lehi from Saratoga Springs to the American Fork Main Street exit at I-15. They are calling it Pioneer Crossing. I guess they had a contest for the naming of the road where children from Snow Springs Elementary (which is right around the corner from us) submitted possible names. Some committee chose the name from those submitted by the children.

Anyway! the road will be at 1000 South which is a few blocks away from our home. The construction is starting now and will go for two years. However, most of the road should be completed and usable by this time next year. The bridge over the railroad tracks and the new overpass at American Fork Main Street and I-15 is what will take the additional year. Here is a map that shows where the road will be exactly.

And here is a picture of what the new overpass will look like.
