Posted: 8:47 AM- PROVO - The Utah Lake Commission is supporting a lawmaker's efforts to appropriate money to study transportation issues near the lake. That includes the feasibility of a causeway.
Rep. Kenneth Sumsion, R-American Fork, says he will propose a bill in the 2008 Legislature that would provide $5 million to study east-west transportation options for Utah Valley such as a causeway and other highways that would affect the lake.
The resolution passed by the lake commission doesn't support any specific road but supports funding to study east-west transportation.
