盐湖城放弃国会山自行车道项目,约67万美元州拨款被收回

犹他州盐湖县盐湖城市消息,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Salt Lake City Drops Capitol Hill Bike Lane Project as $670,000 State Grant Is Rescinded
Salt Lake City has abandoned its plan to build bike lanes on Main Street in the Capitol Hill area after the Utah Transportation Commission voted on November 6 to rescind about $670,000 in active transportation funding that the Utah Department of Transportation had approved for the project, which had been scheduled to start construction in 2025. The city itself asked for the grant to be cancelled, citing new requirements under Senate Bill 242, the possibility of further legislative changes, and a construction timeline extended by Senate Bills 195 and 242 and the Temple open house.
Under SB 242, passed in the 2026 legislative session, Salt Lake City's local street grid is subject to new state oversight, and the city must agree a plan with UDOT by January 1, 2027, to mitigate traffic-calming impacts on key corridors. The city has not said whether or when it will reapply for the funding.
