High Valley Transit plans to remove construction traffic controls and reopen trails along the SR-224 bus rapid transit project for winter, according to its current construction update. Crews may continue working on local bus stops when weather allows, with major work resuming in spring 2027. [1]

The operator says major work is complete at Park Avenue and Deer Valley Drive, including new turning lanes, traffic signals, sidewalks and drainage improvements. It also reports progress on utilities, drainage and bus stations farther north along the corridor. [1]

The winter slowdown does not mark completion of the Bobsled Express project. HVT's 2027 plan calls for widening the southbound roadway between Bear Hollow Drive and White Pine Canyon Road, and the northbound roadway between McPolin Barn and Kearns Boulevard. Station work will include canopies, passenger-information boards, lighting and landscaping. [1]
