Service or Fare Approval

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Approve additional Sunday FrontRunner service, free shuttle from the Clearfield FrontRunner station to and from the event, and promotional fare for the Hill Air Force Base Air Show as described below.                     

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

UTA and Hill Air Force Base (“Base”) have historically worked together to provide transportation to and from the Base’s event, the Air Show. The last air show occurred in 2018 and UTA provided bus shuttle service connecting the Clearfield Frontrunner Station to the Base where the air show was taking place. UTA did not charge the Base for the additional bus shuttle service.

 

To incentivize riders to take public transportation, UTA offered a five dollar ($5) premium day pass. This pass was available for purchase through UTA Go-ride and/or online.

 

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

The Air Show will once again take place on June 25-26, 2022. In the spirit of partnership UTA proposes providing additional rail service and complementary bus shuttle service connecting the Clearfield Station to the Base. With the Board’s approval, support by UTA police, supervisors, and the transit communication center will also be provided without charge. These services are valued at $140,100 and details can be found in the fiscal impact section of this memo.

Additionally, UTA proposes offering a day pass valid for use on all UTA service except for Ski, Paratransit, and Park City services. The day pass will be five dollars ($5) and may be purchased through the UTA Go-ride app or online.
