Hales winning bid of $3,797,469.50 was the lowest of three bids. GC Works, Inc. of Miami, Florida and Geneva Rock Products of Orem also submitted bids.

 The project is slated to add approximately five miles of paving to the Ephraim Canyon road.

The county commission will be releasing information on schedules and possible delays as the information becomes available
