transportation & communities
Through the Your Utah, Your Future survey Utahns made their vision for our future clear: safe communities that make life convenient. Utahns want to conveniently get around their communities without a car, to reduce traffic congestion, to live close to destinations, and to reduce the amount of farmland lost to development. Utahns envision their communities having good housing options for them, regardless of their stage of life and whether they want to own a large home or rent a small apartment.
To achieve these goals, Utahns are willing to:
Design communities to be more convenient for pedestrians and cyclists, even if driving becomes slightly less convenient.
Build mixed-use centers with apartments and multistory buildings distributed throughout urban areas.
Have more local traffic congestion if destinations are closer together and overall drive times decrease.
