UTA also recently finished up its
study of transit in Southern Utah County. In contrast to the Tooele study, found a Frontrunner extension to be the most viable alternative.
The locally preferred alternative (LPA) will include an extension of Frontrunner from Provo to Payson with an express bus connection to Santaquin. A future extension of Frontrunner from Payson to Santaquin would follow in the future.
Compared with Tooele County, I think the fact that UTA has been laying the groundwork towards this line has made a difference. Recent work on the Tintic railroad means the corridor is ready.
Public comment on the LPA closes today, then possible modifications may be made before moving on to the environmental study portion.
