Another UTA schedule change day is just around the corner. On Sunday, August 14, select rail and bus schedules will be changed to adjust connections, better utilize resources and, in some cases, implement Prop 1 improvements. Four routes in Davis and Weber counties will see service improvements using Prop 1 funds, and Prop 1 funding will facilitate the addition of a new route in Davis County.

Residents of Davis, Weber counties as well as those in the cities of Tooele, Grantsville and Stansbury will also see improved rider amenities as Prop 1 funds are implemented. Approximately 100 bus stops in Weber, Davis and Tooele counties are expected to receive cement pads, bus shelters, benches and garbage cans by the end of 2016. UTA will also partner with counties and cities to add bike lanes and sidewalks in areas that help riders connect to bus routes.

We will share more details about these new rider resources throughout the summer – follow us on Facebook and Twitter to receive the latest news.

Davis and Weber Service Highlights

Routes 455 and 473 will have additional trips added to their schedules using Prop 1 funds. On route 640, Prop 1 funds will be used to expand Saturday service hours and increase bus frequency to every 30 minutes. Route 667, which runs from Farmington FrontRunner Station to Lagoon, will operate year-round Monday through Saturday to improve access to FrontRunner, Station Park shopping and the new University of Utah hospital.

Prop 1 improvements will also be used to add a new route between Clearfield and Layton. Route 628, the Midtown Trolley, has been sponsored by local businesses and will be free to riders. Eventually, unique buses with a trolley-style look will be used on the route.

Routes 470 and 612 will also see small adjustments for improved reliability and connections. Some weekday trips on route 603 will no longer serve Ogden Clinic.
