Utah to borrow $130M less than planned for roads

Utah lawmakers are moving to borrow $130 million less than planned for highway construction — and released a list Monday of what projects would receive money from that bonding. The House Transportation Commission voted 7-1 to approve that bonding authorization in HB173 by House Majority Leader Brad Dee, R-Ogden, and sent it to the full House. It would authorize borrowing $2.08 billion, or $130 million less than earlier planned, for projects during the next three years. Salt Lake Tribune
