犹他州盐湖城放弃国会山自行车道项目 67万美元州拨款被收回
犹他州盐湖县盐湖城市消息，据City Weekly报道，盐湖城市政府放弃在国会山一带主街建设自行车道的计划，此前犹他州交通委员会收回了约67万美元的项目拨款。该项目原定2025年动工，州交通委员会于11月6日投票撤销了犹他州交通部此前批准的积极交通拨款。市政府主动要求取消这笔拨款，理由是州参议院第242号法案带来的新要求、可能进一步出台的立法变化，以及第195号法案、第242号法案和圣殿开放日导致的工期延长。
根据第242号法案，盐湖城市内街道被置于州交通部管辖之下，市政府不得自行实施街道安全改善工程，地方街道项目的自主权因此受到限制。市政府尚未说明是否或何时重新申请拨款，项目细节和立法要求仍未确定。此事反映出州政府加强监管后，地方街道项目受到的限制正在加大，类似的市内交通改善工程今后都可能面临同样的审批障碍。
Salt Lake City Drops Capitol Hill Bike Lane Project as State Pulls $670,000 Grant
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — Salt Lake City has dropped its plan to build bike lanes on Main Street in the Capitol Hill area, after the Utah Transportation Commission rescinded about $670,000 in project funding, according to City Weekly. The project had been scheduled to break ground in 2025; the commission voted on November 6 to revoke the active-transportation grant previously approved by the Utah Department of Transportation. The city itself asked for the grant to be cancelled, citing new requirements under Senate Bill 242, possible further legislative changes, and schedule delays caused by SB 195, SB 242 and a temple open house.
Under SB 242, streets in Salt Lake City fall under UDOT jurisdiction, and the city may not carry out street safety improvements on its own, limiting local control over street projects. The city has not said whether or when it will reapply for funding, and project details and legislative requirements remain unsettled. The episode reflects the growing constraints on local street projects as state oversight tightens, and similar city transportation projects may face the same approval hurdles.
