The turning lane off U.S. 6 onto 3400 East in Spanish Fork (1600 West in Mapleton) has been closed and will not reopen until Friday, Oct. 20.
Two-way traffic on U.S. 6 will continue with one lane open in each direction. General work hours are scheduled between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Construction officials urge the public to use caution in the construction zone when approaching construction vehicles, and to observe any construction signs.
