ST. GEORGE — A new traffic light is being installed Friday afternoon on Snow Canyon Parkway near Bluff Street, and drivers could experience delays as a result.
In a Facebook post from Friday morning, the St. George Police Department requested that the public avoid the parkway, especially traveling eastbound, until at least mid-afternoon.
Authorities understand that many people may be using Snow Canyon Parkway to avoid the continuing construction on Bluff Street and ask that the public have patience when traveling through the area.
