'''Utah State Route 92''' , or the '''Alpine Loop Scenic Byway''', is a scenic byway in [[Utah County, Utah]] that runs from [[I-15]] near [[Highland, Utah]] to [[U.S. Route 189 (Utah)|US-189]] in Provo Canyon. The route is approximately 27 miles long and is the only road with access to [[Sundance Ski Resort]].

==Route==

The route runs east from Highland and up [[American Fork Canyon]], where it enters the [[Uinta National Forest]]. Shortly after, it passes [[Timpanogos Cave National Monument]], a famous group of caves buried in the side of the canyon. The route continues up the canyon and bends to the south where it passes the east side of [[Mount Timpanogos]]. After passing Sundance Ski Resort, the road links up with US 189 in Provo Canyon.<ref>[http://www.utah.com/byways/alpine_loop.htm Alpine Loop Scenic Byway]</ref>

'''Bangerter Highway''', or Utah State Route 154, named after former Utah Governor [[Norman H. Bangerter]], is an expressway running south from [[Salt Lake City International Airport]] through the [[Salt Lake Valley]]. Construction began in [[1988]] and portions of the highway were opened as completed, with the final section opening on [[November 17]], [[1998]]. It serves the rapidly-expanding population in the western and southern portions of Salt Lake Valley and facilitates access to and from the airport.

==Route==

From the airport's northwest position in the valley, the highway crosses [[Interstate 80]] and [[Utah State Route 201]] and heads south to the city of [[Riverton, Utah|Riverton]] in the valley's southwestern corner. At that point, it turns to the east to join [[Interstate 15]] in [[Draper, Utah|Draper]] at the southern tip of the valley. Access to Bangerter Highway is limited to major cross streets and it is 23.8 mi (38.3 km) in length. It passes through the cities of [[Salt Lake City, Utah|Salt Lake City]], [[West Valley City, Utah|West Valley City]], [[Taylorsville, Utah|Taylorsville]], [[West Jordan, Utah|West Jordan]], [[South Jordan, Utah|South Jordan]], [[Riverton, Utah|Riverton]], [[Bluffdale, Utah|Bluffdale]], and [[Draper, Utah|Draper]].

==Other Information==

In the coordinate system used throughout Salt Lake Valley, Bangerter Highway lies 36 blocks west of Main Street (3600 West). Because of rapid growth in the west and south sides of the valley, the six-lane highway is often congested. An extension of [[Legacy Highway|Legacy Parkway]] is eventually planned to be constructed in the [[Mountain View Corridor]] (approximately 5600 West), offering an alternative to Bangerter Highway.

The highway was originally planned to be a freeway, but the [[Utah]] Department of Transportation (UDOT) instead opted for an expressway that would include stoplights. Along the highway's nearly 24-mile extent there is a signalized intersection approximately every one to one and a half miles. The mayor of [[West Jordan, Utah|West Jordan]] has criticized this and called on UDOT to retrofit the highway with grade-separated intersections. Plans call for there to be grade separations at every intersection from 13400 South to the junction with I-15.

A [[Continuous flow intersection]] is being constructed at the junction of Bangerter Highway and 3500 South, one of a very few such intersections in the U.S. This intersection is one of the busiest in the state and handles 100,000 verhicles on a typical weekday.[http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=963706]
