Council District 7

Sugar House

S-Line Extension

March 24, 2026

The Council, acting as the Community Reinvestment Agency, approved an agreement between the city with the UTA and the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), that will extend the Sugar House streetcar to near the Sugar House Shopping Center. Construction will begin in spring 2026, and service is anticipated to begin late 2027.


August 2025

The Utah Transportation Commission unanimously approved funding to extend the Utah Transit Authority’s (UTA) S-Line!  

UTA, in partnership with Salt Lake City and the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), will work to extend the S-Line from its current end-of-line at Fairmont (1040 East) to the Sugar House Center shopping district.  

This extension aims to support local businesses, reduce traffic congestion and air pollution.  

It will also strengthen community connections by creating transit to link to healthcare workers and patients to the University of Utah Health – Sugar House Clinic, forthcoming affordable senior housing, and more.  

While this project will require some disruption, it is a vital investment in our community as it continues to grow.

The S-Line starts from the left, curves downward, and runs across the image to the right. The image includes several buildings aligned next to the roadways and patches of greenery interspersed throughout. The map features labels like street names and indicators for various landmarks.
