The Wasatch Choice 2040

Merging Land Use and Transportation

Our cities and counties do a terrific job planning for their individual futures, but there are no groups better able to facilitate discussion about the collective future of our metro area than the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) and the Mountainland Association of Governments (MAG)—groups led by mayors and county commissioners. WFRC and MAG have developed the long-range regional transportation plans for our metro area for decades. With a visioning process called The Wasatch Choice for 2040 (facilitated by Envision Utah), began with a huge citizen involvement effort. The process demonstrates how WFRC and MAG are thinking about how growth patterns can help us maintain our quality of life for the coming decades.
