Rio Grande Plan Screening Analysis

The Rio Grande Plan, a citizen-generated concept, proposes to realign heavy freight rail (Union Pacific), regional commuter rail (FrontRunner), and Amtrak rail under 500 West, by way of a train box.

The 9-Line trail, a concrete two-way path separated from the road that connects 900 West all the way to 900 East.

East-West Connections

Salt Lake City received a $1.97M federal grant as part of the Reconnecting Communities Pilot Program to help heal the east-west divide through a robust community-centric planning effort.

Street & Intersection Typologies Design Guide

This guide will help Salt Lake City create streets that are designed better for everyone. The project creates new definitions and designs for 17 distinct kinds (or typologies) of streets in the city.

The image shows a street view of a road labeled "400 S" leading toward the University of Utah stadium in Salt Lake City. The street has two lanes with a dividing line, and there are vehicles parked along the curb on both sides. Trees line the sidewalk, providing shade, and residential homes are visible on the right side. The large structure of the stadium dominates the background, with its recognizable red "U" logo on a prominent tower. The weather is clear with bright blue skies.

1300 E/University District Circulation Study

The 1300 East/University District Circulation Study will recommend transportation improvements, including multi-modal connections, transit, and traffic management, to enhance access to the University of Utah and the local business district.
