Price City will be doing construction on the canal crossing at the intersection of 400 North and Carbon Avenue. This construction will affect traffic patterns in the area. Construction will begin on or around January 5-the first day of school back from the break. We wanted to give you information about the project so you can plan ahead for student drop off/pick up.
Carbon Avenue will be closed from 200 North to 400 North. You can access the Mont Harmon or the district office by going through Carbonville or from 100 East. Students will not be able to walk down Carbon Avenue-there will be pedestrian crossing for students to access 100 West.
In hope to help traffic to flow, the stop signs at the intersection of Carbon Avenue and 400 North will be removed during the construction. Also there will be no left turns permitted from 400 North onto 100 East. In order to ensure the safety of students crossing the road, there will be no parking/drop off on either shoulder of 400 North in front of the school. Please drop off students in the school main parking lot, the parking lot East of the football field or near the park.
Please refer to the map using this link.
School is out until we return on Monday, January 5th, 2026. The office will be closed until that date, so no one will be in the office to answer phone calls. Have a great winter break and we will see you in 2026!
