Abstract:The goal of the 400 S Corridor Assessment study is to evaluate current and future traffic and transit performance along the new light rail line corridors and at major intersections in Salt Lake City’s Downtown and University of Utah areas. The field of study consists of downtown LRT network along Main Street, South Temple and 400 W, corridors along 400 S and 500 S from downtown to University of Utah Campus area, and South Campus Drive/Mario Capecchi corridor from 1300 E to the University Hospital area. Currently, there are three Light Rail Transit (LRT) lines that operate in this area: Red line that goes along the south section of Main Street through 400 S and 500 S to the University of Utah Campus area, and Blue and Green lines, that go along Main Street, South Temple and 400 W. Additional line (Black line) is planned to be introduced as a connection between the Salt Lake International Airport and the University area, through the downtown area and along the 400 S and 500 S corridors. This will increase the frequency of LRT trains in this area, with possible impacts on traffic and transit operations. This study estimates impacts of the additional line and the priority provided to light rail through traffic microsimulation.
