This tentative schedule for construction of the 2.5-mile University TRAX light-rail line is based on completion prior to the 2002 Winter Games. UTA hopes to have the line operational by Nov. 29, 2001.
If delays occur or substantial progress is not made for any reason, the Utah Transit Authority plans to postpone completion of the project in August 2001.
UTA would then temporarily repave the streets for normal use during the Olympics, and then resume construction following the Games with completion set for November 2002.
