We have some breaking news from the state of the hive. The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has chosen a gondola to help ease Little Cottonwood Canyon’s traffic woes.
The Utah Legislature still has to approve funding for this project, and lawsuits from environmental groups are likely.
Before that, changes such as tolling, increased bus services and a new mobility center will be implemented by the end of 2025. The second phase would add snow covers above the common avalanche routes and it would allow for improvements to the track’s parking lot. The third phase would be the construction of the cable car and the new parking structure next to La Caille restaurant.
Find more details from UDOT’s record of decisions below.
