Utah Transit Authority begins to build commuter-rail line

Last week, Utah Transit Authority (UTA) broke ground on its Weber County-to-Salt Lake City commuter-rail line.

Scheduled to open in early 2008, the 44-mile line will include nine stations. The project is being funded in part by a quarter-cent sales tax increase approved by Salt Lake, Davis and Weber county voters in November 2000.

UTA will operate bi-level commuter-rail cars supplied by Bombardier Transportation.
