The Wasatch Front Regional Council is set to vote on a new transportation plan that includes a proposed gondola up Little Cottonwood Canyon
The proposed Little Cottonwood Canyon gondola is one of over 1,000 items included in the 2023-2050 Regional Transportation Plan that the council will vote on. Those in favor and against the gondola were in attendance as the council began the meeting with public comment, which was overwhelmingly against the plan.
Those opposed to the gondola's construction talk of environmental and cost concerns, which could rise to over $1 billion. Even if the council votes to approve the $26 billion overall plan, the item pertaining to the gondola can be removed at a later date.
