Patching on WYO22 will likely cause delays Wyoming 22 Clip art Buckrail - Jackson Hole, news

JACKSON HOLE, WYO – The Wyoming Department of Transportation with contract crews from Lewis & Lewis Inc. along with HK Contractors will be patching sections of WYO22 Teton Pass tomorrow.

Crews will be working on patching intermittent locations on WYO22 on Teton Pass from mileposts 0.44 to 17.0. That’s basically the entire run of Highway 22, from near the Y intersection to the Idaho side of the pass.

The work will take place June 6 through June 8, and then pick up again after the weekend on June 11-12 if needed. Crews will maintain two-way traffic through the majority of the work, but a couple of sections may require one-way alternating traffic. Those sections will only be paved between 9am and 4pm, outside of commuter hours. However, most of the work will be done under two-way traffic.

WYDOT and contract crews are asking the public once again for their patience while the work is completed. Traffic speeds will be reduced, and potential stop delays could be possible between 9am-4pm, so WYDOT is advising drivers plan accordingly while traveling.

This is a district-wide contract patch project which repairs short sections of road in rough condition with a lift of asphalt. This type of work is longer lasting than patching potholes but not as comprehensive as a full overlay.
