CLOSING WILDIFE FENCING GAPS
CLOSING WILDLIFE FENCING GAPS
Now that the wildlife overpass has been completed at Summit Park over I-80 in Park City, it’s time to close the remaining gaps. We need to replace the right of way fencing along this busy stretch of I 80 between Jeremy Ranch and Kimball Junction…and then Kimball Junction to Silver Creek Junction..
SR 224 WILDLIFE MITIGATION MEASURES
SR 224 WILDLIFE MITIGATION MEASURES
SR 224 is the fifth most dangerous hotspot for wildlife vehicle collisions in Utah. Large animals are regularly killed on this stretch of Road in Park City, causing death, injury, and thousands of dollars in property damage. Mitigation measures such as crossings, wildlife fencing and VMS signs are investments that are needed to reduce wildlife- vehicle collisions.

We have been actively involved in the planning of the SR 224 Rapid Transit Bus Plan. Through our efforts, we are hoping to have a wildlife crossing and corresponding fencing for this dangerous roadway added to the plan.
RESOLUTION 2021-10
RESOLUTION 2021-10
We worked with the Summit County Council to ensure that that wildlife mitigation measures were included in the Resolution 2021-10. The resolution passed two to one in Novemeber of 2021, allowing Summit County Council the ability to secure a bond not to exceed $50,000,000 that will preserve our open space while including wildlife mitigation measures in future conservation easements and land acquisitions.
