The Summer road construction season is in full swing. U-DOT has sent out an update on where there may be delays and orange cones.
Highway 6,Tucker to Soldier Summit: Paving operations are underway. Travel will be restricted to one-way traffic with flaggers and a pilot car operation.

Paving operations are taking place in the Eastbound lanes of Highway 6 between MP 204 and MP 211 (Soldier Summit). Work is anticipated to be complete late June, 2013.
