Starting 2022, the Salt Lake City Transportation Division worked with neighbors to improve the safety of Emery Street through traffic calming.
Salt Lake City Green Loop
Salt Lake City is exploring a concept to improve the quality of life for people living, working, and traveling downtown by adapting the existing street space to include more trees, shade, and transportation choices.
900 West and California Avenue
In 2023, the Transportation Division made safety improvements to the intersection of 900 West and California Avenue with pedestrian safety islands that create a protected intersection – the second of its kind in Salt Lake City!
600/700 North Mobility, Safety, and Transit Improvements Program
The 600/700 North Mobility, Safety, and Transit Improvements Study will create a plan to transform this critical Westside Salt Lake City corridor in ways that promote safety, enable mobility for active modes and transit, and better serve the surrounding neighborhoods.
300 North Bridge
There is a new walking and bicycling bridge over the railroad tracks at 300 North (and approximately 500 West)!
400 South Street Improvements (900 West – Redwood Road)
As part of a larger effort to enhance transit facilities, Salt Lake City implemented a series of in-roadway bus boarding islands on 400 South between 900 West and Redwood Road. We also made improvements to the crosswalks at approximately 1400 West and the intersection with Goshen Street.
1000 West Corridor Plan
Over the last three years, the Salt Lake City Transportation Division has engaged with the community about 1000 West’s challenges and opportunities while also making smaller improvements such as adding buffers to the bike lanes, reducing the speed limit, and installing an all-way stop and high visibility crosswalks at 300 North. We are now looking at further improvements for the street and want to consolidate individual projects into a plan.
Sugar House Safe Side Streets
The Sugar House Safe Side Streets Study originated from a Constituent Capital Improvement Program request for funding to implement traffic calming in a section of Sugar House north of 2100 South.
700 South 1000 West Traffic Calming
We’re installing a citizen-requested roundabout at the intersection of 1000 West and 700 South to help calm traffic and improve roadway safety in the Poplar Grove neighborhood.
Capitol Hill Traffic Calming
Salt Lake City partnered with the Capitol Hill Neighborhood Council to implement neighborhood traffic calming strategies that promote safety, livability, and neighborhood character for area residents.
