RIVERDALE, Utah — The Utah Department of Transportation confirmed potential heat damage to Riverdale Road caused lane closures. 

The damage is specifically located at 700 West, Riverdale Road. 

UDOT’s John Gleason said crews are working to repair the damage as of 7:02 p.m., Sunday, June 23. He said the damage seemed like it was a buckling incident due to the heat. 

“They have the two right lanes closed while they’re making repairs and then they’ll move over to the other lanes once the first ones are done,” he said. 

Gleason said it doesn’t seem like they will have a complete road closure throughout Sunday night.
