  • 2010 Year in Review from the General Manger
    2010 Year in Review From the General Manger UTA marked its 40th anniversary in 2010. I am honored to have been part of UTA for more than 30 of those years. I remember when we were a small, 67-bus operation with one garage. Now we are a vibrant, multimodal transit system serving six counties with 118 bus routes, 20 miles of TRAX light rail lines and 44 miles of FrontRunner commuter rail. Despite the current economic challenges, I have never been more excited about our future. We're working hard to place a major transit stop within reach of every resident in the counties we serve. We are even closer to that goal with the FrontLines 2015 program, which will add 25 miles of light rail in Salt Lake County and 45 miles of FrontRunner commuter rail in Salt Lake and Utah counties. In 2010 we completed more than half of the FrontLines 2015 program and announced the openings of the Mid-Jordan and West Valley TRAX lines for summer 2011. We're on track to complete the rest of the lines in this massive project by 2015, as promised. None of these major projects would be possible without the support of community members along the Wasatch Front. So as we celebrate 40 years of service, remember our best years are yet to come. Warm Regards, Michael Allegra General Manager Utah Transit Authority 2010 Progress Frontlines 2015 Progress in 2010 FrontLines 2015 Progress UTA has been busy constructing the largest transit Line Percent Complete project in its history—the $2.8 billion FrontLines 2015 FrontRunner South 74 project—making significant progress in 2010.

  • 2011 in Review.Cdr
    2011 Year in Review From the General Manger The past year has been momentous for the Utah Transit Authority. With a dedicated and talented team and strong community participation, we marked a year of progress and transformation. We simultaneously opened two new light rail lines ahead of schedule and under budget in August, while increasing system-wide ridership to more than 41 million trips—a six percent increase relative to the previous year. In conjunction with the new TRAX openings, we modified bus services. Community input played a critical role as we planned our bus service transitions. As we plan for the future, the public remains the richest resource for research and needs analyses. We will continue to invite public participation as we prepare the openings of our newest FrontLines 2015 projects. This past year we also renewed our pledge to keep safety our highest priority, as we will every year. We work hard to plan and engineer the safest possible transportation systems. To supplement our engineering, we will continue to do our utmost to educate and enforce measures designed to keep our riders and the public safe. It remains our number-one priority. For example, working with the international organization Operation Lifesaver, UTA team members will be seen throughout our service areas at schools, businesses and community groups talking about how to be safe around trains. We will remember 2011 as an incredible year. With hard work and continued community support, 2012 will be just as transformative and memorable. Michael Allegra General Manager Utah Transit Authority FrontLines 2015 Progress Frontlines 2015 Progress in 2011 UTA continues to make substantial progress on the $2.8 billion FrontLines 2015 project.

  • 2016 Before-And-After Studies Report to Congress
    Before-and-After Studies of New Starts Projects Report to Congress March 2017 Prepared by: Office of Planning and Environment Federal Transit Administration U.S. Department of Transportation www.transit.dot.gov 2 FOREWORD This eighth annual report to Congress on Before-and-After Studies summarizes the findings for three projects that opened to service in 2011 and 2012, presented in order of their opening date: 1. Mid-Jordan Light Rail Project; Salt Lake City, UT (August 2011) 2. Northshore Connector Light Rail Project; Pittsburgh, PA (March 2012) 3. Streetcar Loop Project; Portland, OR (September 2012) Before-and-After Studies help sponsoring agencies and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to accumulate insights into the actual costs and impacts of major capital transit investments and to evaluate the accuracy of the predictions of the costs and impacts made for these projects. Each Before-and-After Study documents the actual outcomes of a New Starts or Small Starts project in five dimensions: physical scope, capital costs, transit service levels, operating and maintenance costs, and ridership. To support this part of the study, project sponsors collect data on actual conditions before and after implementation of the project. The “before” data collection occurs before any impacts of the project are realized – soon before the project opens to service or, in some cases, before project construction disrupts transit service and ridership in the corridor. The “after” data collection for physical scope and capital costs occurs immediately after project opening. The “after” data collection for changes in transit service, operating and maintenance costs, and ridership occurs two years after the project opens in order to permit conditions to stabilize.
