The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has been evaluating different ways to reduce passenger vehicle trips up Little Cottonwood Canyon by 30%. They recently said that a gondola to Snowbird and Alta, with a base station at La Caille, is their preferred alternative. This proposed solution would also include increased and improved bus service (with no canyon roadway widening), tolling or restrictions on single occupancy vehicles, and the construction of a mobility hub. The entire project would cost an estimated $550 million (in 2020 dollars).
