FY2026 wfrc MPO CPG SLC, O/L areas; annual work program

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) a Formula Grant of $491,687.49 on June 27, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to support the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Continuing Planning Grant (CPG) for Salt Lake City and outlying areas. This funding supports comprehensive transportation planning activities and related work program development for the WFRC region in Utah.

Under the Highway Planning and Construction program, UDOT delivers transportation planning services essential to the multimodal transportation network development in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area. These planning activities facilitate coordination among local jurisdictions and transit agencies within the WFRC service area, supporting the development of long-range transportation plans, project prioritization, and annual work programs that align with federal transportation priorities and local infrastructure needs. As the prime grant recipient, UDOT administers these funds through its established partnership with the WFRC MPO to advance transportation planning capabilities and support decision-making for highway, transit, and alternative transportation initiatives across the region.
