Saving the lives of wildlife will take a bit longer than expected, extending closures on Interstate 80 at Parleys Summit.

The plan was to close westbound lanes on Tuesday night and eastbound lanes on Wednesday between mileposts 137 and 141 from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. But UDOT announced that westbound lanes will close again on Wednesday night and eastbound lanes will now be closed Thursday, also from 8 p.m. until 6 a.m.

Drivers will need to detour on Interstate 84 through Morgan Canyon, or U.S. 189 through Provo Canyon and then U.S. 40 back to Park City.
