Sandy City is now implementing new traffic enforcement for the closures of Little Cottonwood Canyon. It comes because of major traffic impacting nearby neighborhoods.
SANDY CITY, Utah — Sandy City is now implementing new traffic enforcement for the closures of Little Cottonwood Canyon."If you need to drop something off, drop somebody off, take the kids to school, you can't get back to your home. You're stuck in the line," said Kelli Buttars, who lives on Little Cottonwood Lane.
"The decision was made that the best case scenario would be to have for lack of a better term, a queue of cars that would line up on Wasatch Boulevard. Wasatch Boulevard is a wider road, it has a shoulder including a bike lane." said Public information officer Greg Moffitt with the Sandy City Police Department.
Mayor Zoltanski said the test on Wednesday morning went well, and they will continue to implement it, but only for days when there are canyon closures.
