Thanks for the comments!

Thanks for the great comments and additional information.

In regards to Frontrunner, thanks for the information on how the driver might not be able to see the passenger platform, I think now the question is is there going to be a way for them to possibly be able to know that there might be an issue where they might have to wait a short time for it to be resolved?

On 13th West, that seems understandable that there is an issue above and beyond the control of UTA and that it might take some time to resolve. Is that due to the fact that 64th South/62nd South is too narrow in the area between 7th and 13th West where it crosses the Jordan River? It looks that way to me, I think once the cities or the county connect the two together in a way that buses could use that, it will allow the 62 to pick up passengers at Fashion Place West station, and go straght over on 64th and 62nd South, and still interline at the 56th West Wal-Mart.

The conductor and the engineer are in radio contact so the engineer will not depart until he gets the OK.

I believe the problem with Route 62 is the turn from westbound 6200 South (Bennion) onto southbound 1300 East. The turn is too tight for the buses to make it right now.

The bridge over the Jordan River is fine, it had bus service for 70 years or more until UTA cut the 12 route a couple of years ago.
