Mountain View Corridor Project Information

Did you know…

• MVC will serve 13 cities across the Wasatch Front
• Initial construction builds two lanes in each direction with signalized intersections where MVC crosses local roads
• In the future, as improvements are made in subsequent construction phases, MVC intersections will be reconfigured as grade-separated interchanges
• At the ultimate build-out, MVC will be a freeway similar to I-15, extending 35 miles north and south from 1-80 in Salt Lake County to Lehi in Utah County
• MVC added a new connection between Redwood Road and I-15 in Utah County
• MVC will include a transit line running along 5600 West
• The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) cited the MVC environmental review process as an “outstanding example” of helping the public plan for future growth.

Funding

The Utah State Legislature allocated $500 million in the 2009 Legislative Session as part of a bonding package for start of construction in Salt Lake County. The Transportation Commission had previously designated $230 million for Salt Lake County and $130 million for Utah County.

The subsequent phases of MVC will be built as funding becomes available.
