This winter, however, the opposite happened - the Utah Transit Authority announced cutbacks to bus routes due to staff shortages. “There’s a suite of options that can be pursued depending on the problem that we want to pursue.”Įxpanding bus service isn’t a novel concept, as skiers and snowboarders have been clamoring for more public transit in recent years. “I wouldn’t say it’s just buses,” Perez said. The plan calls for different transportation solutions depending on the area, like building larger mobility hubs for buses at the canyon’s ski resorts - Brighton and Solitude - or smaller changes to trailheads to improve their quality. The CWC plan stresses the need to, “shift from cars to transit by increasing transit service,” and “improve transit reliability,” to and through Big Cottonwood all year.īlake Perez, the CWC’s executive director of administration, told The Salt Lake Tribune the plan has recommendations to improve the canyon ranging from smaller projects like re-striping parking lots, to bigger asks, like proposing the creation of a transit district specific to the Central Wasatch canyons.
