STUDY OVERVIEW
In 2025, Salt Lake City will reconstruct 600/700 North from 800 West to Redwood to replace aging/failing roadway pavement. This project is also an opportunity to reimagine the road in a way that:
-
Improves safety by calming traffic and adding new safety features
-
Creates a more comfortable and accessible experience for people biking and walking
-
Makes transit more convenient
-
Adds to the beauty of the community with new trees and landscaping.
VISION AND GOALS
STUDY PROCESS
Studying Existing Conditions
The team will collect and analyze data such as the number of vehicles, freight trucks, bicycles and pedestrians using the road. We’ll look at the condition of the pavement, sidewalks, and utilities, We’ll present this information to the community so they understand the needs and opportunities and can comment on potential improvements. A final design is expected to be ready in 2024 with construction starting in 2025.
Community Participation
We will work with you to share updates on the project and collect your input on important design decisions throughout the process. We’ll engage with you in person at community events, through this website, email, social media, a project hotline, online surveys, workshops, and newsletters. Please sign up for emails so we can let you know about opportunities to comment and share how your input is helping decide future improvements on 600/700 North.
Concept Design & Engineering
Our team will use your comments along with the technical analysis to decide the road concept and begin the engineering work to design it. This process will run through the end of 2024 when the final design will be ready. We will be asking you for input along the way so the design reflects community priorities and addresses community concerns.
PREVIOUS STUDY
This Concept Study is a new phase of a previous project the City undertook in 2021 to understand community priorities and concerns regarding the road. Several initial road design concepts were created and shared with the public to get their comments. We are building on those outreach and design efforts to update these concepts and design the road so it can be built in 2025.
