Starting Thursday, August 22, Davis County will begin essential maintenance on the Denver & Rio Grande Rail Trail between the Legacy Trail terminus and the Davis/Weber County line. The project includes seal coating and the installation of glow-in-the-dark lane striping—which will be the first trail in the state with this technology.
Here's what you need to know:
Sections of the trail will be closed as work progresses, with each section reopening within
24 hours.
The county will replace pavement segments where tree roots have caused damage from 750 N in Clearfield to 1550 N in Clinton. The pavement replacement will take place mid to late September, and due to weather, seal coating on the newly paved sections may be delayed until spring 2025.
The lane striping is scheduled for September 14 & 15 (overnight, starting at 10 p.m.).
Tentative Seal Coating Schedule:
Day 1: Thursday, August 22
Day 2: Monday, August 26
Day 3: Wednesday, August 28
Day 4: Thursday, August 29
Day 5: Friday, August 30 (work begins in Clinton City)
Please respect the closures and detours during this time. Signage will be in place to guide you to alternate routes.
