North Temple Street is
a city-owned arterial street that runs east to west from
State Street to approximately 2400 West. At its western end,
at I-215, North Temple splits into two different roads, a
local street that terminates at Salt Lake City International
Airport (SLC) property and an onramp for Interstate 80 and
Bangerter Highway with access to the airport.
The North Temple study
area extends from 400 West (the eastern end of the North
Temple viaduct) to 2200 West (along the onramp) which is a
total of approximately 2.7 miles. The land use analysis will
include the immediate block both north and south of North
Temple (to 200 North and South Temple Street respectively).
The study area is transected by three major roads: I-15,
Redwood Road, and I-215. The interstates pass over North
Temple on viaducts and no access is available from North
Temple. North Temple and Redwood Road, a state highway,
intersect at a fully controlled intersection.
In 2009, construction
started on the Airport Light Rail Line. North Temple will be
under construction from now until the line is finished, in
late 2012 or early 2013. The city anticipates having a
Master Plan adopted prior to the completion of the line in
order to help with future land use related decisions. Check
back often for updates on the planning process.
