E A G L E M O U N T A I N M A S T E R T R A N S P O R T A T I O N P L A N Introduction The purpose of the Eagle Mountain Master Transportation Plan is to create a transportation plan uphold Eagle Mountain as a “community that captures a neighborhood feel in the midst of Utah’s urban corridor,” while effectively managing an increasing need for transportation infrastructure. Eagle Mountain has seen rapid growth in the past decade and is projected to nearly triple in population by 2040. This growth will ultimately exceed the capacity of the City’s existing transportation system. This plan responds to future demands on the City’s transportation system while retaining safe and active streets for non-motorized travel. This plan has been organized into six sections, which cover the components of the transportation master plan. They include the following sections: 1. Introduction 2. Existing Conditions 3. Future Conditions 4. Plan Recommendations 5. Capital Facilities Plan 6. Appendix A map of the proposed Eagle Mountain Master Transportation Plan streets is shown in Figure 1. Page 1
