Welcome to Mountain View Corridor
The Mountain View Corridor is a planned freeway, transit and trail system in western Salt Lake and northwestern Utah counties, servicing 13 municipalities in the project area.
Construction on the Mountain View Corridor in Salt Lake County will start in late spring/early summer of 2010 on a 15-mile segment between 5400 South and Redwood Road (at approximately 16000 South).
In Utah County, the three-mile construction area is on 2100 North from Redwood Road to I-15. UDOT will select a contractor in October 2009, with construction starting in December 2009 and finishing in September 2011.
Initial construction includes building two lanes in each direction with signalized intersections where future interchanges will be located. Trail sections will also be built. Future construction will build out the remainder of the corridor by adding interchanges and more lanes to achieve a fully functional freeway. A transit solution is also planned on 5600 West.
The project will be built in phases designed to balance transportation needs with available funds.
The Utah State Legislature allocated $500 million in the 2009 Legislative Session as part of a bonding package for start of construction in Salt Lake County. The Transportation Commission had previously designated $230 million for Salt Lake County and $130 million for Utah County.
To meet projected transportation demands in the year 2030, the full build-out includes a freeway that connects with Interstate 80 at 5800 West in Salt Lake City in the north and Interstate 15 at 2100 North in Lehi in the south. The transit component of the project is a high-capacity service line on 5600 West in Salt Lake County that connects with both the planned Airport Extension at the International Center and Mid-Jordan Line in South Jordan.
