Cottonwood Canyon Construction Update

Big Cottonwood Canyon will undergo construction that will prevent cycling access to certain parts of the canyon. Construction crews will be paving S.R. 190 (Big Cottonwood Canyon) from milepost 8 (mid canyon) to the Brighton Ski Resort loop and will also include Guardsman Pass Road up to the winter gate. Crews began lowering utility access covers in the road last week, and construction is expected to continue through mid-August.  

Paving operations should begin on Tuesday, June 30. Crews will be working Monday through Thursdays during daylight hours. Traffic will be restricted to one lane of travel that will be led by a pilot car.  Cyclists can access the canyon up to milepost 8 but will be restricted at that point during construction.
