A $46 billion long-range plan for roads and transit in northern Utah will be available for public comment at open houses this week and next in Salt Lake and Weber counties.
The plan lays out a connected transportation network stretching from Weber County to Utah County.
Among the plan's recommendations are raising gas taxes, building a narrower but toll-free west-side Mountain View Corridor in Salt Lake and Utah counties and widening Interstate 15 and I-80. It also explains the Utah Transit Authority's proposal to build 70 miles of commuter rail and TRAX in seven years.
