Long-term plan aims to link trails around Utah Lake; sections under construction
Summary
Hosts describe a decades-long effort to build a continuous trail around Utah Lake (roughly 25+ miles completed), with new sections under construction by Saratoga Springs, UDOT and county partners and further segments planned to improve active-transportation links.
Sam described a multi-decade collaborative effort among cities, county agencies, developers and special service districts to build a lakeshore trail network. He said "there is a plan to try and put a trail all the way around Utah Lake" and estimated the currently built portions add up to "just over 25 miles total." Sam and Savannah highlighted new construction on the Saratoga side with UDOT and county-led connections from Linden toward American Fork Marina planned this year.
The hosts noted the trail will support both recreation and active transportation, linking into the Provo River Parkway and several city trail networks as segments are completed. They advised listeners to review the Utah Lake Trail (Veil) plan on the Authority website for maps and construction updates.
