The Transportation Element in Davis County’s draft General Plan identifies prioritized projects and partnering agencies intended to improve regional mobility and multimodal access. Slides list major roadway and transit priorities—West Davis Highway (SR‑177), US‑89 improvements, I‑15 widening/interchange projects, and targeted east–west connections—along with lead partners UDOT, WFRC, Davis County and affected cities. Presenter noted that FrontRunner double‑tracking and a planned Davis–Salt Lake Community Connector BRT are included as mid‑ to long‑term transit priorities.
