Several Logan property owners and the city mayor urged the Transportation Commission to advance UDOT’s recommended Y‑to‑X realignment and the 100 East to 200 East connection on Logan’s Main Street, telling commissioners the measures would relieve daily bottlenecks.

At public comment, Brian Lundahl — representing a family property held since 1939 — told the commission his family supports UDOT’s current route and urged the department to “put the road through” rather than leave the alignment in limbo after decades of indecision. He said ongoing traffic bottlenecks on South Main Street affect “hundreds, thousands” of drivers and that planned multifamily housing and population growth will only increase demand.

Mayor Holly Gaines of Logan also spoke in support of funding and UDOT’s engagement; she noted past local investments of more than $38 million and recent city spending on a new bridge and road extension, and said the proposed UDOT improvements would build on prior work and support transit and active transportation options.

UDOT staff told the commission the Logan Main Street item was on the day’s agenda and would be addressed later. The commission did approve a broader program of capacity projects in the meeting that included the Logan Main Street improvements on the list of proposed projects submitted in the programming workshop.

What happens next: UDOT staff will advance the Logan Main Street Y‑to‑X and 100 East–200 East connection in the STIP/programming process and return with design and funding steps; commissioners and local leaders said they expect work to proceed to relieve congestion.
