SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — A section of I-80 toward I-15 will be closed overnight for concrete repairs, according to the Utah Dept. of Transportation.
The closure extends from the I-80 Eastbound ramp to Southbound I-15 in Salt Lake City. The closure is in place so new concrete can solidify before the road reopens, according to UDOT.
The closure will last until 4 a.m. on Monday, June 30. Drivers will reportedly be diverted onto the I-15 Northbound ramp toward Ogden.

Fast X: Part 2 Release Date & Brian's Return Get Huge Updates From Vin Diesel

Fast & Furious franchise star and producer Vin Diesel recently teased the release date window of Fast X: Part 2 and the return of Brian O'Conner, previously portrayed by the late Paul Walker. As of 2025, 10 movies have come out in the main branch of the franchise. It was previously reported that the upcoming 11th film would also be the last chapter of the Diesel-led movie series. However, the franchise will potentially continue through spin-offs. Diesel made an appearance at the FuelFest, an automobile festival organized by Paul Walker's brother Cody and Tyrese Gibson, and revealed key details about Fast X: Part 2, the finale of the Fast & Furious movie series. He announced that the movie will debut in April 2027. 'As you all know, we've been working very hard to bring you the finale,' Diesel began while addressing the crowd at Fuel Fest. 'Our franchise is only made possible because of the love that you all have for this culture called the car culture.' He disclosed that he had a meeting with Universal, the production company behind the franchise, a day ago, and the studio asked him if they could have the release date for the Fast 11 movie in April 2027. The MCU actor revealed that, in response, he listed three conditions that the fans have been asking for. Diesel said the first condition was to bring the franchise back to Los Angeles, California, which served as the setting of the first movie, 2001's The Fast and the Furious. The second thing, according to the actor, was returning the narrative to the car culture, the street racing. While the earlier movies in the franchise heavily focused on cars and the culture around them, later entries gradually shifted away from that. The third condition, Diesel revealed, was 'reuniting Dom (Diesel) and Brian O'Conner.' He added, 'That is what you gonna get in the finale,' indicating that Universal has agreed to his conditions. Paul Walker last portrayed Brian in 2015's Furious 7. He died in a tragic vehicular accident two years earlier. Walker's brothers, Cody and Caleb, and John Brotherton served as stand-ins for him for certain scenes in Furious 7. The 2023 release Fast X had archival footage featuring Walker's character. At the time of this article's composition, it's unclear how and in what capacity Brian will appear in Fast X: Part 2.

Trump Says ‘Mr Japan' Unfair on Cars, Floats Keeping 25% Tariff

(Bloomberg) -- US President Donald Trump floated the idea of keeping 25% tariffs on Japan's cars as talks between the two nations continued with little more than a week to go before a slew of higher duties are set to kick in if a trade deal isn't reached. Philadelphia Transit System Votes to Cut Service by 45%, Hike Fares Squeezed by Crowds, the Roads of Central Park Are Being Reimagined Sao Paulo Pushes Out Favela Residents, Drug Users to Revive Its City Center Sprawl Is Still Not the Answer Mapping the Architectural History of New York's Chinatown 'So we give Japan no cars. They won't take our cars, right? And yet we take millions and millions of their cars into the United States. It's not fair,' Trump said during a Fox News interview that aired Sunday. 'Now, we have oil. They could take a lot of oil. They could take a lot of other things,' he said, referring to ways Japan might reduce the US trade deficit. The comments show that the two sides still remain some distance from an agreement and highlight the risk that Trump may stick with the 25% tariff on autos. The interview came out after another round of talks between Tokyo's top trade negotiator, Ryosei Akazawa, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Akazawa flew across the world to hold face-to-face talks in Washington, and while they initially met in person, two subsequent discussions took place on the phone. Akazawa couldn't meet US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent this time even after he extended his visit by a day. Following the airing of Trump's interview, which was taped Friday, Akazawa took to social media to reiterate that the bilateral talks are ongoing. 'Japan-US negotiations are at a critical stage, and we will continue to engage in sincere and earnest discussions,' he said in a post on X. Both sides agreed to continue talks this week after the Trump interview took place on Friday, he added. Auto-related stocks on the Topix fell 1.1% in Tokyo on Monday, compared with a 0.4% gain in the overall index. The duty on the car sector has emerged as one of the key sticking points in the talks. Washington is focusing on its large deficit in the sector while Tokyo is trying to protect a key pillar of its economy. In 2024, Japan's trade surplus with the US stood at ¥8.6 trillion ($59.3 billion). Roughly 82% of the gap was due to Japan's surplus in cars and auto parts. US statistics show that the deficit with Japan is the seventh largest among Washington's individual trading partners. Akazawa has repeatedly said that the US's car tariffs are unacceptable, saying that Japan's auto industry has made an enormous contribution to the US economy through the investment of more than $60 billion and the creation of 2.3 million local jobs. Japan has insisted on keeping the sectoral tariffs on cars and other items included in the talks on the wider country-specific levies that are due to go up on July 9. Upon his return to Tokyo on Monday, Akazawa reiterated that stance while saying the deadline is a milestone in the talks. 'It's a huge blow to us that the auto sector remains subject to the 25% tariff,' Akazawa said. 'Taking this into account, we aim to continue vigorous discussions toward an overall agreement.' Statements released by the Japanese government over the weekend said Akazawa and Lutnick had 'fruitful' discussions and agreed to continue seeking a deal that is beneficial for both the US and Japan. The statements did not touch on what was discussed or what progress was made. The 25% US tariff is already in place on cars and auto parts, along with a 50% duty on steel and aluminum. The separate across-the-board tariffs, now at 10%, will jump to 24% if no deal is reached in time. Without a breakthrough in the negotiations, Japan's economy could be pushed into a technical recession after it shrank in the first quarter. Trump's statements in the interview gave no impression that Japan was any closer to reaching a deal or winning an extended reprieve on the reciprocal tariffs. Instead, Trump flagged that the US can set its trade terms with Japan unilaterally. 'I'm going to send letters,' Trump said in the interview, referring to a plan to inform some trading partners that the US will unilaterally set tariffs. 'I could send one to Japan. 'Dear Mr. Japan, here's the story. You're going to pay a 25% tariff on your cars.'' --With assistance from Yoshiaki Nohara, Yasufumi Saito, Mari Kiyohara and Akemi Terukina.

Musk Reignites Feud, Labels Trump Bill 'Insane, Destructive'

Elon Musk and President Donald Trump speak to reporters in the Oval Office of the White House on May 30, 2025, in Washington, D.C. Credit - Kevin Dietsch—Getty Images Elon Musk has renewed his criticism of President Donald Trump's 'Big, Beautiful, Bill,' showcasing his fierce opposition to the measure at a critical time. As Senate Republicans scrambled to advance the newly-revised 940-page proposal, Musk took to social media on Saturday to highlight his disapproval. 'The latest Senate draft bill will destroy millions of jobs in America and cause immense strategic harm to our country,' Musk said to his more than 220 million followers on X. 'Utterly insane and destructive. It gives handouts to industries of the past, while severely damaging industries of the future.' Musk, the former lead of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), who had a spectacular falling out with Trump not long after leaving the White House, doubled down on his position in a series of follow-up messages. The Tesla CEO referred to the bill as 'political suicide' for the Republican party, citing poll data that showed an approval of his stance against the measure. Musk went on to say that the bill 'raises the debt ceiling by $5 trillion, the biggest increase in history, putting America in the fast lane to debt slavery.' Prior to Musk's latest criticism of the bill, Trump had spoken about his one-time ally during a sit-down with Fox News on Friday, for a Sunday Morning Futures interview of which the first part aired on Sunday morning."I haven't spoken to him much, but I think Elon is a wonderful guy. And I know he's going to do well, always. He's a smart guy. He actually went and campaigned with me... but he got upset, and that wasn't appropriate," Trump said, claiming that Musk had become unhappy over changes to the Electric Vehicle [EV] long-established opposition to the Big, Beautiful Bill proved to be a sticking point during his DOGE leadership, and notably became a point of contention between himself and Trump, whose presidential campaign he helped fund. In early June, Musk said the 'massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.' He took things a step further by telling his millions of followers to 'call your Senator, call your Congressman… kill the bill!' Read More: The Musk-Trump Implosion Can Be Seen From Space In the midst of Musk's public criticism, Trump's domestic policy bill, which centers on tax and spending cuts, cleared a significant hurdle on Saturday night. The Senate delivered a 51-49 vote to take up the bill, after holding the floor open for hours to debate with holdouts and secure the numbers necessary to move forward. Vice President J.D. Vance arrived at the Capitol ready to break a potential tie, and he reportedly held deep talks with people unsure of pledging their support to the bill. The newly-revised bill—released just after midnight on Saturday—may have advanced, in spite of the vocal opposition it faced from some, but there is still a lot of work to be done. The measure will now be debated in the Senate, and if it passes the Senate, it will go back to the House. The timeline is incredibly tight, as Trump has expressed his desire to sign the bill on July 4th. Meanwhile, Senate Democrats are currently dragging out the process by reading aloud the 940-page bill. By midday on Sunday, the Senate had finished its 12th hour and was little more than halfway through reading the proposal. 'If Senate Republicans won't tell the American people what's in this bill, then Democrats are going to force this chamber to read it from start to finish," said Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer of New York. Despite the long road ahead, in the early hours of Sunday morning, Trump celebrated the progress the bill has made thus far, saying he was 'very proud' of the Republican party. 'Tonight we saw a great victory in the Senate,' Trump said, before going on to name the key people involved in advancing the measure. 'I look forward to working with them to grow our economy, reduce wasteful spending, secure our border, fight for our military/veterans, ensure that our Medicaid system helps those who truly need it, protect our Second Amendment, and so much more.' Read More: Trump Lobbies for Passage of 'Big Beautiful Bill' Hours After Big Setback in Senate Republicans Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky notably voted to block consideration of the measure. Sen. Tillis said he could not support the bill due to his concerns over Medicaid cuts and what that would mean for people in his state. 'The Senate version… contains significant changes to Medicaid that would be devastating to North Carolina, and I cannot support it,' Tillis said. 'The Senate should go back to the House's common-sense approach to Medicaid reform to enact work requirements while protecting care for those who truly need it.' Trump took to his own social media platform, Truth Social, to air his grievances with Tillis' oppositional stance. 'Numerous people have come forward wanting to run in the primary against Senator Thom Tillis,' he said. 'I will be meeting with them over the coming weeks, looking for someone who will properly represent the great people of North Carolina and, so importantly, the United States of America.' In a statement on Sunday, Tillis said he will not seek re-election. The two-term Senator said that he is proud of the "bipartisan victories" he's been a part of during his tenure, but highlighted his concerns about the current political environment. 'In Washington, over the last few years, it's become increasingly evident that leaders who are willing to embrace bipartisanship, compromise, and demonstrate independent thinking are becoming an endangered species,' he said via a statement. 'Sometimes those bipartisan initiatives got me into trouble with my own party, but I wouldn't have changed a single one.' Sen. Paul, meanwhile, took a stance against the policy bill's provision to raise the nation's debt limit by $5 trillion. On Saturday evening, he shared Musk's X post showcasing poll numbers being against the bill, and commented: 'Not that we should govern by poll, but it is very clear people don't want this extreme amount of debt and reckless spending.' Explaining his issue with the numbers, Sen. Paul said: 'How about this: Tweak the 'Big, not so beautiful, bill' so it doesn't add so much to the debt? The legislation, as currently written, would pay someone like Elon Musk $1000 per child, and we know how prolific he is . . . No offense, Elon, but is that a wise use of our $$?' Responding to Sen. Paul's vote, Trump said: 'Did Rand Paul vote 'NO' again tonight? What's wrong with this guy?' On the other end of the opposition, some hard-right Republicans held off on their votes until the last minute, angling for further spending cuts into the bill in exchange for their support. Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, who had earlier in the day urged fellow Republicans not to rush through the bill before knowing exactly what it contained, dramatically changed his vote to a yes in the closing moments. Speaking out after his last-minute change of heart, Sen. Johnson said: 'Biden and the Democrats left behind enormous messes that we are trying to clean up—an open border, wars, and massive deficits. After working for weeks with POTUS and his highly capable economic team, I am convinced that he views this as a necessary first step and will support my efforts to help put America on a path to fiscal sustainability.'
