Construction is set to commence on both sides of the freeway as local projects move into their initial phases. The groundwork is being laid following the approval of necessary permits, with grading already underway at the IME Automations site near Anderson Junction Road. The city is currently collaborating with the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) to finalize plans for the north slope of the parkway, which includes efforts to relocate power poles underground. This initiative, if funded, could potentially delay the project by four months, although simultaneous grading and design work may mitigate some of the delays.

Property owners have expressed tentative support for the city to integrate power infrastructure into their developments, facilitating the project without additional costs to the city. Meanwhile, the contractor for the new water tank is facing challenges due to rocky terrain, which has damaged equipment. However, UDOT has permitted trenching across the asphalt to install power lines, with hopes of connecting to the utility bridge by year-end.

In related infrastructure updates, a water line project along Mills Lane aims to enhance redundancy in the water system by connecting to the frontage road after boring under the freeway. Additionally, an emergency replacement project is underway to replace aging PVC pipes with more durable ductile iron, addressing frequent breakages in the existing system.

Overall, the city is actively managing multiple construction projects, ensuring that engineering processes are on track while addressing utility challenges and community needs.
