NEWS Millcreek is Considering Ways Highland Drive Could Be Made Safer and More Walkable MILLCREEK. Highland Drive businesses and residents of the Mt. Aire neighborhood to the east of Highland Drive have asked the City to look at making the street safer and more walkable. The City Center Master Plan and the Millcreek General Plan suggest that Highland Drive might ---PAGE BREAK--- See agenda below Click here for our Calendar of Events accommodate a wider variety of uses and purposes than it has in the past. The City Center Overlay Zone (CCOZ) calls for better street grids and rigorous traffic studies. In furtherance of these goals, the City commissioned a Highland Drive Corridor Study. The study concludes that Highland Drive might move higher volumes of traffic more efficiently if it was reconfigured from its current four-lane cross- section to a three-lane cross-section (one lane in each direction with a center turn lane). The study determined that a three-lane configuration was a feasible option under likely future (2030) conditions. HIGHLAND DRIVE CORRIDOR STUDY OPEN HOUSE Weds., Feb. 12th, 6:00 pm Millcreek City Hall 3330 South 1300 East The study and a proposal to test the results by re-striping Highland Drive (with paint only) to a three-lane configuration will be discussed at an open house to be held at City Hall (3300 S.1300 on Wednesday, February 12th, at 6:00 pm. The idea is to try out the reconfiguration with paint only, so that the test is cheap and it can be changed back readily if it is not working. However, before we do that, we want your input about this experiment. If we do this, we would coordinate with Salt Lake City to ensure that the Highland Drive section is consistent all the way from the light at 12th East to 3300 South. Click here to review the Highland Drive Corridor Study. We look forward to your attendance at the open house. If you are unable to attend the meeting, comments may be sent to Rita Lund, [EMAIL REDACTED]. ---PAGE BREAK--- CELEBRATING 150 YEARS OF WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE MILLCREEK. The first vote under a women's suffrage law was cast and counted 150 years ago right here in Utah. Millcreek has joined the celebration by becoming a Utah HERitage City and honoring February 10 to 15, 2020 as Utah Women’s Suffrage Week. On February 12, 1870, the Utah Territorial Legislature passed a women’s suffrage bill that allowed women citizens over the age of 21 to vote. Two days later, on Valentine’s Day, school teacher Seraph Young cast a vote in Council Hall in Salt Lake City and became the first woman to vote under equal suffrage laws in what is now the United States. Join uBetter Days 2020 for an historic week of suffrage celebrations and activities to celebrate these important anniversaries and our Utah HERitage.
