Draft Listing of Highway Projects
- Does Not Include Any New Freeways
- Have Reviewed with City Staff
- So Far Minor Changes Have Been Suggested
- Red = Needed by 2020
- Blue = by 2030
- Green = by 2040

Notice the Choke Points (dashed black lines)
- Cedar Pass has 26k Trips per Day
- Lehi 35k
- Lindon 217k

Current Day…
- Buffalo, NY
- Hartford, CT
- New Orleans, LA
- Richmond, VA
- Oklahoma City, OK
Each have about 1 million population and have multiple freeways and expressways
Salt Lake County Today has 1.1 million people Utah County in 30 years is projected to be 1.1 million people What Will Become of our Highway System?
8 9/19/2011
SLIDE 9
- At 1.1m people in
30 years, Utah Co. lacks ideal freeway spacing
- Geography makes
choke points in Lehi, Santaquin, Lindon, and Springville
UT Co.
- With 1.1m people
today, SL Co. is close to ideal freeway spacing
- South area of county
needs better east/west connectivity
SL Co.

1st West Side Freeways Were Modeled
The Question is Always Asked… “Why Not Build A Bypass to I-15 on the West Side of the Lake?”
- 3 Scenarios Were Modeled, All Do Well
Eagle Mountain to Lehi
- South of Eagle Mountain to Santaquin is
a Corridor Preservation Project
- None of the Scenarios Help Relieve
Congestion in the Lindon or Lehi Areas

Next East and West Side Freeways Were Modeled to Create a Grid Network
- The 3 Scenarios Through Cedar Pass
Do Well from Eagle Mountain to Lehi
- Mountain View FWY with Utah Lake
Bridge Relieves Lindon and Lehi Areas
- Payson to Provo FWY Relieves
