IMPORTANT NOTE: Beginning August 22, 2011, the southbound I-15 off-ramp to Provo Center Street will be closed through November 22, 2011, for reconstruction. The new ramp configuration will be open in late fall, but until then, motorists wishing to access west Provo, Utah Lake State Park, and the airport should use University Parkway to Geneva Road as an alternate route. Local traffic can use Center Street or 820 North. All other ramps at the interchange will remain open during this time. Turn lanes at the intersection of Center Street and 1600 West will be removed, but turns will be permitted from the through lanes. Please allow extra time to travel through the construction area and detours and plan your arrival at the airport accordingly.
Good point. Congestion at the Provo airport is one thing. Traffic problems along I-15 in Utah County are quite another.
