Recent events (such as the passing of Utah Senate Bill 195,) have caused us to take a moment to reflect on the idea of our organization’s namesake - Sweet Streets. While our mission has been and will continue to be focused on improving our public streets and spaces, we want to restate the concept of a ‘Sweet Street’.

On March 7, the Utah Legislature voted to end Salt Lake City’s control of its own streets. Specifically, the capital can not move forward on any “highway reduction strategy” on a city-owned collector or arterial until they get approval from the Utah Department of Transportation.

An amendment was made to SB195 reverting many of the changes made in the compromise Substitute 5 version, resulting in a bill that will greatly reduce SLC’s ability to make its streets safer.

You showed up in force for safe streets, now let’s seal the deal. SB195 Sub 5 addressed many issues with Sub 3 but there remains a pause on many street safety projects throughout Salt Lake City.

Utah SB195 pauses most SLC transportation projects for the next year and adds UDOT oversight. That means no progress on Livable Streets, Neighborhood Byways, and more.

We’ve compiled a list of most streets projects in Salt Lake City for 2025 and beyond.

The City Council voted this week to release about $3 million in funds to create project development and public space management guidelines, create a conceptual design for the Civic Block of 200 E (350 to 450 South), and design the layout on 500 West from 600 to 900 South.

The Sweet Streets Board has set several goals for the year to continue growing and connecting the Sweet Streets community.

Sweet Streets has submitted or help submit 3 different CIP applications this year for improving our streets!
