Public Involvement

Communication with Stakeholders

In an effort to support the development of long- and short-range plans and programs, such as the Wasatch Choice 2050 (WC2050) Vision, Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), and Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), as well as participate in regionally significant transportation-related projects and studies, the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) strategically communicates with relevant stakeholders. This communication takes place across a wide variety of platforms and includes management of the following.

  • The WC2050 Consortium, in an effort to promote the Vision and ultimately improve the quality of life for residents along the Wasatch Front.
  • In-person and on-line events and tools, such as open houses, webinars, interactive maps, and visualization tools, in an effort to proactively plan for the future of our region.
  • Content for the website and all social media platforms, including FacebookTwitter, and YouTube, in an effort to continue to build relationships with cities, counties, transportation partners, community-based organizations, and the private sector.
  • E-mail newsletters, including distribution lists, and online surveys, in an effort to proactively notify stakeholders and interested parties of visions, plans, and programs, as well as upcoming events.

Equal Opportunity and Access at WFRC (Title VI)

Wrapped up a great Infrastructure Week in D.C.!

We had productive discussions with our Congressional delegation about the upcoming transportation reauthorization bill and coordinated with MPO peers from across the country.

#InfrastructureWeek #TransportationPlanning

State leaders were thrilled to welcome U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin to the Beehive State!

We shared Utah’s collaborative approach to planning and building transportation projects.

Exciting news! The new @southjordancity Downtown TRAX station is now open!

We’re happy to support this station through regional planning efforts, helping to increase transportation choices and thoughtful development in the area.

Take a ride and experience it yourself!
