Welcome to Mountain View Corridor, Salt Lake County

In Spring 2010, the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) will begin construction of the first phase of Mountain View Corridor (MVC) in Salt Lake County. This first phase will construct a 15 mile segment of MVC north from Redwood Road (at approximately 16000 South) to 5400 South. This scope stretches beyond the original plan, which would have built MVC from Redwood Road to 9000 South. On October 14, UDOT announced that design changes and low construction costs would enable the project to extend 5-miles farther north.

As part of the initial construction, UDOT will build two lanes in each direction with signalized intersections where future interchanges will be located. UDOT will also preserve adequate right-of-way to convert the initial at-grade facility to a full freeway. The conversion to a full freeway will be part of future phases.

The Copper Hills Constructors Team, made up of Granite, Kiewit and W.W. Clyde construction companies, will help UDOT finish design and estimating work, and will complete construction of the first phase.
