"The solution to speeders on Pioneer Crossing in Lehi may be to raise the speed limit.
A Utah Department of Transportation study has recommended raising the speed limit from 35 mph to 45 or 50 mph. The proposed change has Lehi city leaders worried about safety.
UDOT had a speed study done for Pioneer Crossing and submitted the results to Saratoga Springs, Eagle Mountain and Lehi in December for comment. Region 3 UDOT traffic engineer Doug Bassett said Monday that UDOT is waiting for the city officials' responses."-Daily Herald

Eagle Mtn. Hopes for Another Road
"To understand the city's transportation problems, all one needs to do is take a drive on State Route 73.
"When you get on the road from here to Saratoga Springs, it is obvious we need a second route," Councilman Eric Cieslak said at a recent council meeting.
But Mayor Heather Jackson said help may be coming soon".-Salt Lake Tribune

Pioneer Crossing Project Could be Delayed
"State transportation officials have temporarily halted a road construction project after discovering a pair of red-tailed hawks have built a nest in its path.
The Pioneer Crossing project is a new east-west, multi-lane corridor from Saratoga Springs to south Lehi in Utah County. It's scheduled to open in late 2009.
Last week environmental monitors detected the hawk's nest in the construction area. The Utah Department of Transporation has installed a rope barricade that preserves an 800-foot perimeter around the nest site.
If eggs are present, UDOT expects to delay construction in the area until mid-July or early August." -ksl.com

Construction begins on Pioneer Crossing
"Work began Tuesday on an alternative east-west route for motorists to get in and out of those cities (Eagle Mountain and Saratoga Springs) and to access Interstate 15. Ground-breaking for the Pioneer Crossing project was held Tuesday afternoon.
The six-mile-long expressway project has been put on the fast track for completion, with 90 percent of the arterial expected to be finished by November.
The second phase of the project from Lehi's 850 East to I-15 on American Fork's Main Street will be completed by fall 2010.
The Utah Department of Transportation has contracted Kiewit and W.W. Clyde and Co. for the $260 million project, which includes the I-15 diverging diamond interchange, the first of its kind in Utah. The design involves a major east-west artery that crisscrosses over the freeway with only two signals and a free flow of traffic on and off the freeway. The DDI interchange will replace the American Fork Main Street interchange."- Daily Herald
