UDOT ready to start $8 million West Davis Corridor study

OGDEN (Deseret News) — People may still call it Legacy North, but the future road along western Davis County is currently unknown.

Sure, a possible alignment for a roadway has been on planning maps for years in Farmington, Kaysville, Layton, Syracuse, West Point and West Haven.

And the Wasatch Front Regional Council envisions a four-lane road in Davis County and a two-lane road in Weber County.

But there's nothing official on paper saying exactly what a western Davis corridor would look like.

That's because the Utah Department of Transportation is just now getting ready to kick off an $8 million federal environmental impact statement study to look at all of the options.

"We're calling it the West Davis Corridor," said UDOT project manager Randy Jefferies, "so we can keep an open mind to various solutions that exist out there."
