I checked with UDOT for details and this closure shows just until November 7 for rockfall protection so hopefully it's not every night for the next 2 years!
"Traffic Alerts: Nighttime delays for one-way traffic with flaggers to install rockfall protection barrier: Oct. 13 to Nov. 7, between Rainbow Bay and Island Beach, weeknights 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., Saturdays 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., and Sundays 10 p.m. to 9 a.m. Traffic may be stopped up to 15 minutes at a time to allow cars to pass."
Here's a little more info from UDOT:
Overview: Fall 2025-Fall 2027, the US-189 Wallsburg to Charleston widening project will build two additional travel lanes on this section of US-189, install a new traffic signal at the intersection of US-189 & SR-113, and improve access and parking at the Island Beach day use area. When finished, US-189 will have two travel lanes in each direction from Provo to Heber City, reducing congestion and increasing safety for all drivers.
