UDOT will start construction through Logan Canyon to install fiber optic cables, which could help improve cell phone service in the area, a longtime dead zone.
The project will include installing 30 miles of fiber optic cables, which could help improve cell phone service down the roadThe winding Logan Canyon has long been a scenic drive for folks in northern Utah, with thousands of people making the trek through it every summer on the way to Bear Lake and back.
UDOT will start installing roughly 30 miles of fiber optic cables in the canyon, according to UDOT Region 1 Director Rob Wight. The fiber will also lead to more traffic cameras being installed, and later an automated sign. As of now, there are only two traffic cameras in the canyon, and the fiber installation will be a noticeable upgrade.
“The biggest public safety improvement that will come out of this project will be the fact that cellphone towers will be able to be installed and people have access for emergency calls in the canyon,” Zook said. “Currently, there’s no service at all for almost the entire Canyon.”
