The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) invites the public to review the updated Long-Range Transportation Plan for 2023 through 2050 and provide input on the proposed ideas for addressing transportation needs on state routes in rural Utah.
This public input opportunity is now underway through July 25, 2023. UDOT’s Long-Range Transportation plan is updated every four years and details anticipated transportation needs in rural Utah along with proposed projects to address the outlined needs.
The planning team utilized a variety of factors to determine rural transportation needs and proposed projects, such as public input, local government coordination, transportation data and models including projected population and employment growth, and funding estimations. The proposed projects listed in the plan address multimodal transportation needs including highway, transit and active transportation projects.
