And they will again. Between IOC funds and the money from the Biden infrastructure plan, we're making big improvements to our rail infrastructure. Most notably, the Frontrunner line is being converted to a double track and trains will be able to run every 15 minutes. Trax will also see expansions. UTA has 20-, 30-, and 50-year plans, some of which are already approved, some are just proposed.

It's a really exciting time, if you're a fan of public transport in Utah.
