Crash Closes Eastbound Interstate 80 at Parleys Canyon in Salt Lake City: Clearance Estimated by 7:58 p.m.

Saturday, October 31, 2026 · Cities · GSM News

Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah — Eastbound Interstate 80 was closed at the mouth of Parleys Canyon on October 31 following a major vehicle crash, and the Utah Department of Transportation issued an emergency closure notice urging Halloween-evening drivers to find another route.

The department said eastbound I-80 is closed at Parleys Canyon, with access blocked from southbound Foothill Drive, from northbound I-215 East, and from the ramp from westbound I-80 to southbound I-215 East. Its initial clearance estimate was 7:58 p.m. on October 31, with the actual reopening time depending on progress at the scene.

Parleys Canyon is the main eastbound route out of Salt Lake City, and with heavy Halloween-evening traffic the closure could back up surrounding roads; drivers should plan alternate routes and follow the department's real-time updates. The department's initial notice did not release details on injuries or the vehicles involved.
