The Minaret MUP is getting paved!

Work started this morning, Sept. 29, 2026, heading from Meridian Boulevard south toward Ridge Way.

Paving the MUP is expected to continue through Thursday, followed by sections of connecting roads at Ridge Way and Snowcreek Road being paved on Friday. This will allow for smooth tie-ins between the MUP and the existing roads.

Final touches, striping, and other work such as handicap ramps, cobble swales, and sign installation will need to be completed in the coming weeks, and the path will not be open until the project is fully finished.

Please be respectful of the process and stay off the path while construction is still underway. We’re getting close!
