2011 Sandy Transportation System Plan

Parking Lot Plan

NOTICE: The 2011 TSP is replaced by the 2023 TSP on July 20, 2023

The City's Transportation System Plan (TSP) serves as the foundation for the construction of arterial and collector streets, and helps shape the future development of Sandy.  The State Transportation Planning Rule requires cities to prepare and adopt transportation plans as elements of their comprehensive plans. 

Additionally, the plan serves as a valuable resource for staff, policy makers, and the public.  Having an adopted TSP establishes the function, capacity, and location of future transportation facilities, informs the community of the level of investment needed for facilities to support anticipated growth and development, and better positions the City to compete for scarce transportation funding.

From 2008 through 2011, the City of Sandy worked with DKS Associates to update the 1997 Transportation System Plan. Since the preparation of the 1997 TSP, the City has added approximately 73 acres into the Urban Growth Boundary and prepared the Bornstedt Village Specific Area Plan to address conceptual roadway locations and cross-sections for the added area.  Additionally, the City has assumed responsibility for transit service, establishing a fixed route, on-demand, and special needs transportation services; adopted new local street standards including "green street" options; and developed a Synchro/Sim Traffic model for Highway 26 operations. Finally, many of the projects shown in the 1997 TSP have already been constructed, and others have been determined to be unfeasible due to existing and surrounding land uses and topographic and environmental constraints.

The 2011 Transportation System Plan was adopted by the City Council on December 19, 2011.
