Good morning listeners, and welcome to your Lehi community update. We've got some exciting developments happening in our growing city, so let's dive right in.
First, some great news for trail enthusiasts. According to the Utah Department of Transportation, the intensive paving work on the Jordan River Trail detour is wrapping up. If you've been hearing construction noise late at night, that should be coming to an end after Wednesday morning. The detour paving was completed to keep the trail accessible while crews work on the massive 621 million dollar east-west freeway project along 2100 North. The full project is expected to be completely open within the next couple of months.
Speaking of community improvements, Lehi just opened its brand new expanded public library this week. Located within the new Lehi Civic Center campus, this facility is providing our fast-growing community with more space to read, gather, and connect. It's a wonderful addition to our city.
Now let's talk weather, because listeners, it's looking beautiful out there. According to Ventusky weather data, we're looking at high clouds today with temperatures reaching around 22 degrees Celsius, that's about 72 degrees Fahrenheit. Winds are light, humidity is sitting at 52 percent, and visibility is excellent at 16 kilometers. Perfect conditions for getting outside and enjoying that new library or hitting the trails once they're fully reopened.
On the sports front, our Lehi Pioneers baseball team had an impressive showing recently. According to MaxPreps, on Friday, April 3rd, the Pioneers defeated Skyridge High School with a dominant 17-10 victory. That's quite a turnaround from their earlier matchup against the same opponent.
As we head into the weekend, listeners should know that Utah Lake is getting some major environmental support. According to the Lehi Free Press, our area received 7.7 million dollars in federal funding for Utah Lake environmental efforts, which is fantastic news for our local ecosystem.
