UTA adopts first-ever 5-year service plan Lee Davidson © Rick Egan (Rick Egan | Tribune file photo) A UTA bus in Downtown Salt Lake City, Aug. 6, 2019.
Imagine a core network of Utah Transit Authority buses and trains that arrived so frequently that riders wouldn’t need schedules. Add to that vision transit that runs late at night, at midday and early in the morning seven days a week.
Those are key goals of the Utah Transit Authority’s first-ever, five-year service plan, which the agency’s board adopted Wednesday. The Legislature required the agency to develop such a plan and update it regularly when it restructured UTA in 2018 after a series of scandals.

After Latter-day Saint leaders announced the site of the Lindon Utah Temple on Monday morning, Mayor Jeff Acerson looked out the window of his sunroom at the property and talked about the area’s history and the significance of the arrival of a temple in his city.
“We feel that communities are stronger as they focus on serving others, and I think The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints represents that and really matches well with our community,” said Acerson, a church member who previously served as president of the Rome Italy Mission.
The temple site will be built on the Southeast corner of 800 East and Center Street in Lindon, the First Presidency announced in a brief news release. The Murdock Canal Trail winds along the site’s east border and will give those who walk and bike on the trail a magnificent view of the temple, Acerson said.
