This year’s total TLC program funding awarded approximately $2.1 million from the intergovernmental partnership, with local matches equaling approximately $260,000, for a total region-wide funding amount of $2.4 million – a record high, reflecting the significant demands growth is placing on our communities.

SALT LAKE CITY (March 27, 2023) – Robin Hutcheson, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Administrator along with representatives from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC), Salt Lake City and Salt Lake County convened to discuss transportation safety in Utah. The past two years have seen some of the highest number of fatalities on our roadways, and safety is a top priority of national, state, and local leaders and transportation officials. Together the group considered Utah’s safety challenges, discussed solutions, and forged relationships that will allow Utah to address them collaboratively.

Thank you to our transportation partners, local communities, and stakeholders for the input over the last few months on the draft fiscally constrained 2023-2050 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP).
