Love your thought process here but UDOT will never, and I mean never, cede control of their highways to the city. UDOT is one of the biggest impediments to our city overcoming it's car centric design challenges. They literally do not care about the capital city. They are a clearinghouse for sweetheart construction contracts and that's all.
