“We are paying almost 30 million dollars in those four cities, in terms of our share of sales taxes, that go to UTA, and we're getting five to six million dollars worth of actual service. That's a problem.”
RIVERTON, Utah — UTA has a five-year, $1.3 million dollar Capital Plan, and not one dollar will go to improving transit in Riverton, Bluffdale, Herriman and South Jordan said Trent Staggs, Mayor of Riverton City.
At a meeting earlier this month, UTA’s local advisory council recommended the Capital Plan for the Board of Trustees’ approval. Jay Fox, the Executive Director of UTA, pushed back on Mayor Staggs' criticism. Mayor Staggs would like to see UTA start with express buses going north and south on Redwood Road, with stops at major intersections in Riverton.“Now we've put a bus literally on every corner and that service area, connecting people in a whole different way," said Fox.“It's not really simple to hail a ride via Via, and there's only designated spots," he said."They'll come and drop off. It's better than nothing.
