Welcome to Mountain View Corridor

The Mountain View Corridor (MVC) is a planned freeway in western Salt Lake County and northwestern Utah County, servicing 13 municipalities.

Which section of MVC opens on June 2?

On June 2, a two-mile section of MVC, from 12600 South to Rosecrest Drive (14400 South), will open to the public. UDOT coordinated with the local communities to open this section of MVC early to help ease traffic congestion in the area. The remainder of MVC will open later in 2012. At 10 a.m. the day of the opening, UDOT, Riverton and Herriman will host an opening celebration and 5k Fun Run on the newest pavement you’ll ever tread. Come discover the new road and celebrate with your neighbors. Watch the N avigation Video. More Information

What is currently being constructed in Salt Lake County?

Initial construction of MVC in Salt Lake County builds two lanes in each direction from 5400 South to Redwood Road (at approximately 16000 South). The initial 15-mile segment will include signalized intersections where MVC crosses local roads and will preserve the land in the middle for future expansion. Initial construction in Salt Lake County began in summer 2010 and will be complete by the end of 2012.

What was recently constructed in Utah County?

In Utah County, initial construction built a three-mile frontage road system from Redwood Road to I-15 at 2100 North in Lehi. The frontage road system consists of two lanes in each direction with signalized intersections where MVC crosses local roads. Land is preserved in the middle for future expansion. Initial construction began in February 2010 and was completed in September 2011.

What are the utility relocations taking place as part of MVC?

MVC is preparing utilities now for future road construction. In Salt Lake County, MVC has acquired property as part of a coordinated effort with utility companies to relocate existing power lines and to construct new lines within the MVC utility corridor.

What are the long-term plans for the MVC?

The MVC team will use a phased construction approach designed to balance transportation needs with available funds. Future construction will build out the remainder of the corridor. Full build-out will enhance initial construction by converting intersections to interchanges and adding inside lanes to achieve a fully functional freeway. This phased approach is part of the overall MVC plan to address short-term regional transportation needs while providing a long-term solution for the future.

To meet projected transportation demands in the year 2030, the full freeway will connect with Interstate 80 at Salt Lake City 5800 West in the north and Interstate 15 at Lehi 2100 North in the south. The transit component of the project is a high-capacity service line on 5600 West in Salt Lake County that connects with both the planned Airport Extension at the International Center and Mid-Jordan Line in South Jordan. A trail and sidewalk system will also be built adjacent to MVC, providing 21 miles of trails through Salt Lake and Utah Counties.
