Agency: Transportation

Line Item: Region Management

Function

The Utah Department of Transportation consists of a central office, four region offices, and three districts maintenance offices. The four regional offices are located in Ogden, Salt Lake, Orem, and Richfield. The three district maintenance offices are located in Richfield, Price, and Cedar City.

While the regions and districts were originally organized to perform only maintenance work, they acquired the function of construction, preconstruction and materials labs when these functions were partially decentralized. The reasons for decentralization were to have work planned and supervised in close proximity to the area and people being served.

Traditional work performed by a district or region is divided into six functional areas of responsibility. The functional areas are administration, preconstruction, materials labs, construction, maintenance, and safety/loss management.

Statutory Authority

The Regional Management Division of the Utah Department of Transportation is governed by the UCA 72-6.

Intent Language

    Under terms of Section 63J-1-603-(3)(a) Utah Code Annotated, item 219 of Chapter 2 Laws of Utah 2010 is made non-lapsing with the use of any non-lapsing funds limited to the following: Region Management $200,000.

Program: Region 2

Function

Region 2 is responsible for highway needs in Salt Lake, Summit, and Tooele counties. This Region oversees the highways of approximately 45% of the State's population.

Region Two has both rural and urban facilities within the boundaries. Through an extensive effort to better serve their customers with many different needs, every project has a detailed public involvement effort that begins in the concept phase and continues to maintenance. It is important that the facilities constructed in the Region are an asset to the communities in which they serve.

Region 2 has been a leader in the Department in innovation for project delivery. Region 2 completed the one of the first Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) projects in the country. This bridge construction method is now used routinely by the department. ABC provides economical savings as well as significantly reducing traffic delays. The department is also constructing Continuous Flow Intersections (CFI) to accelerate left turns at intersections. This concept increases traffic flows at busy intersections by as much as 45%. Several Continuous Flow Intersections are currently operating in Region 2.
