Utah Department of Transportation

UDOT is working to make the road safer, but they need drivers to accept responsibility.

For gateway and resort communities it’s a tale as old as time: High costs of living make it hard to attract the labor that keeps the wheels turning.

The vehicle-to-everything concept has been in the works for years, but just last August U.S. officials released a national blueprint. Utah, one of the industry leaders, started by putting radios on buses that could talk directly with traffic signals to request an extra few seconds of green.

How much rain? Salt Lake City, Spanish Fork, Provo and Lehi all recorded more rain on Monday and Tuesday than in a typical entire month of August.

The Utah Department of Transportation controls Main Street and has a variety of ideas to improve pedestrian safety in Moab. But advocates say they leave out a big one: lowering speed limits.

Moab has Utah’s most dangerous main street when it comes to the severity of traffic accidents, says a citizen report. Fixing that is not an easy lift.

The bulk of funds will be allocated to widening roads and building new interchanges in counties across Utah.

A statewide coalition of Utahns is asking legislators to put millions toward public transit options for communities outside the Salt Lake City metro area.

The data gathered through Utah’s year-old Roadkill Reporter app is helping the state better understand migration patterns and keep highways safe.

Getting passed over for federal funding was a disappointment for rail advocates and local leaders who tout trains' ability to connect Utahns and boost rural areas. But they aren't giving up.

So far, in 2023, there have been 351 crashes and 13 fatalities on the section of U.S. Highway 6 that travels through Carbon, Emery, Utah and Wasatch counties.

Recent pedestrian deaths in St. George and Logan highlight the rising number of similar incidents across Utah over the past few years.
