FARMINGTON — Moving people more freely between Salt Lake and Davis counties through the use of public transit is a significant enough traffic concern that county officials are willing to help fund a south Davis County transit study.

The Davis County Commission recently agreed to put $7,500 toward the South Davis County Alternatives Analysis, a Utah Transit Authority study that will look at creating a regional public transit plan with Salt Lake City.

The county’s contribution to the study, to begin in 2013, is part of a collective pool of $60,000 to which local entities will contribute. The pool money will provide the matching funds necessary to qualify for an additional $360,000 grant from the Federal Transit Administration.

OGDEN — Law enforcement personnel were kept busy responding to a number of accidents on icy roads Saturday night in Weber and Davis counties.

FARMINGTON — As the Utah Department of Transportation presses forward with the environmental study for the West Davis Corridor, Farmington’s elected officials are taking a hard stance about which option they want.

The city recently sent UDOT a detailed letter, outlining their preference for the Shepard Lane interchange option.

The letter, dated Nov. 20, was signed by Mayor Scott Harbertson and all five city council members.
