PROJECT UPDATE (updated 8/13/2021) – Learn more about the 900 South project and construction of the Central Ninth portion (300 West to West Temple) below. Check out the Phase 2 Open House with the new design. Our comment period has closed but our email is always open 900South@slcgov.com
Project Overview
Salt Lake City will reconstruct 900 South from 900 West to Lincoln Street (945 East) starting in 2021. As part of the project, the 9-Line Trail corridor will be an attractive, safe, and inclusive place for neighbors, businesses, and street users. A new trail will also introduce a walking and bicycling connection between east and west Salt Lake City, linking neighborhoods, business districts, and cultural destinations.

PHASE 1 900 South Construction - 300 West to West Temple (Central Ninth)
Project Hub
We recommend viewing the Project Hub below in its own window, on a larger screen like a computer or tablet. If you are viewing it on a mobile device, turn your screen to landscape view. Also the Hub works better if you click the links and images within it instead of using the side arrows.
Read the 9 Line Trail Extension Study from 2018 for more background.

Timeline
Construction on this section of 900 South began July 2021 and will continue through Fall 2022.
Construction Updates
Businesses along the 900 South corridor, from West Temple to 300 West are open for business, and signage indicates how to best navigate construction.
Construction will continue on the south side of 900 South until November 2021, and will then move to the center median in March through May 2022. Due to construction, there is no parking on the south side.
A minimum of one lane of traffic will always be open on the 900 South corridor, so you will always have access to the Central Ninth District. Construction on the north side of 900 South, will begin June through September 2022.

Timeline
Construction is scheduled to begin on the section of 900 South from 300 West to West Temple in July 2021. Construction on the rest of the corridor will continue until the end of 2023. However, construction will be staged to only impact portions of the corridor at any given time in order to reduce construction impacts to the community.
Funding
This project is valued at $19 million, and it will be financed via multiple sources of funding including an active transportation grant from Salt Lake County, RDA funds, the 2018 voter-approved Funding Our Future street reconstruction bond, and water and sewer funds (among others).
