West Provo Council discusses traffic, commercial expansion near Epic Sports Park

Provo City Council is taking steps to address traffic concerns as it considers expanding the airport industrial area by an additional 13 acres. During the recent meeting on April 8, 2025, council members discussed the importance of improving traffic flow in the region, particularly in light of the proposed development.

One council member expressed a desire for increased setbacks in the new industrial area, emphasizing the potential for more commercial development to better serve West Provo. This aligns with ongoing plans to designate land near the Epic Sports Park for hotels and restaurants, which could enhance local amenities and attract visitors.

The discussions reflect a proactive approach by the council to balance industrial growth with community needs. As the city moves forward with these developments, residents can expect improvements in both traffic management and commercial offerings in the area. The council's commitment to addressing these issues signals a focus on creating a more accessible and vibrant Provo for its residents and visitors alike.
