SALT LAKE COUNTY, Utah, April 5, 2023 (Gephardt Daily) — Big and Little Cottonwood canyons are closed Wednesday due to the volume of snow, and the need for clearance and avalanche mitigation, the Utah Department of Transportation says.
“SR-210 will NOT open today,” says a morning tweet, shared below. State Route 210 is Little Cottonwood Canyon. SR-190 is Big Cottonwood Canyon.
An afternoon tweet says Big Cottonwood Canyon is also closed for the day.
“SR-210 will NOT open today. NO ETO. @UtahDOT slide debris clearing operation is underway.”
“The amount of snow is unprecedented,” the original tweet says. “All are working slowly and methodically to ensure safety of all travelers.”
