Big Cottonwood Canyon Winter Transit Plan

planned

The Utah Department of Transportation proposed a winter transit plan for Big Cottonwood Canyon to reduce winter peak congestion on SR-190. The plan includes a mobility hub at a former gravel pit, bus-priority lanes through the Brighton Loop, enclosed resort bus stops at Solitude and Brighton, dedicated bus lanes, bus pullouts, raised passenger platforms, a bus-activated signal, and a transitway connection to Wasatch Boulevard. Variable-price electronic tolling is also proposed to maintain operational capacity during peak winter periods.
