Mountain View Corridor

Mountain View Corridor is an arterial road that runs roughly parallel to Bangerter Highway (SR-154) one to four miles to the west, built to meet the demand of the growing cities in western Salt Lake and Utah counties.

Phase One includes constructing either the outside lanes or two one-way frontage roads for each section of the entire length of the Mountain View Corridor, but not all at the same time.

[4] The first sections of Mountain View Corridor opened for traffic in a design of separated two lane carriageways with signal controlled at-grade split intersections, to be upgraded later.

Previous proposals included raising the state fuel tax or tolling the new road as a public/private partnership, an issue that became highly contentious.

[6] Ultimately, the state legislature decided to issue bonds to fund the freeway, thereby committing future tax receipts to pay for it.

Construction on two miles of frontage roads in Herriman between Rosecrest Drive and 12600 South has been completed and this portion opened for traffic on June 2, 2012.

These additional portions are will extend the usable roadway from Porter Rockwell Boulevard in Bluffdale north to the Old Bingham Highway in West Jordan.

By the end of 2012 a total of fifteen miles of Phase One frontage roads, extending from Porter Rockwell Boulevard north to 5400 South in West Valley City, will be open for use, as well as associated bike lanes and trails.

Opening celebrations included a fun run, an ugly sweater competition, and ceremonies where the Mayor of West Valley City spoke.

[14] In October 2019, another portion in Utah County opened to traffic, connecting SR-73 and Pioneer Crossing (SR-145) to Redwood Road and 2100 North (SR-194).

[15] The next section of Mountain View Corridor in Salt Lake County (4100 South to California Avenue) opened to traffic on June 17, 2021.

In September 2021, funding was allocated to build the Phase 1 iteration of the segment running from 2100 North to Porter Rockwell Boulevard.
