Overview
In 2020, Salt Lake City reconstructed 2000 East from Parleys Canyon Boulevard to the city limit with Millcreek. The pavement surface, sidewalks, curb, and gutter were upgraded, and a new street design to improve travel conditions for people walking and biking was also implemented.

Before and after
Public input
Thanks to everyone who participated in the project survey and shared their ideas and comments on how to build the best possible project! The selection of the final street design was based on the following criteria:
- Technical analysis
- Results of the project survey (posted below)
On the weekend of March 7, 2020, our team posted door-to-door notices for adjacent residents informing them about the upcoming project. A postcard was mailed to a larger geographic area to also inform residents in the surrounding neighborhoods.
Intersection design options
Thanks in part to the community feedback we received, the roundabout design was selected at the intersection of Parleys Canyon Boulevard and 2000 East as shown below.
Option A – Roundabout (selected for construction).
Option B – Realigned ‘T’ intersection (not selected).
Option C – No Change (not selected).
2000 East northern segment (Parley’s Canyon Blvd to Stratford Ave)
