A $32 million makeover on 3500 South in West Valley City is done, clearing the way for rapid buses from Magna to the north-south TRAX line.
The Utah Department of Transportation on Friday dedicated its project eight months ahead of schedule. Work began a year ago.
The roadway from Bangerter Highway to 2700 West now includes three regular lanes in each direction and one each way exclusively for the Utah Transit Authority's first bus rapid transit line.
Crews laid fiber-optic lines and utilities before repaving the road with concrete and building curbs, gutters and sidewalks. Landscaping and decorative lighting are yet to be installed.
