The average number of bus stops in Salt Lake City, Utah, is nearly three football football fields apart, according to transit data compiled by the Works in Progress blog. This distance can lead to longer walks, riskier street crossings, and barriers for people with disabilities. The city is home to some of the nation's largest city blocks, making it difficult for non-vehicles to navigate without a car. Additionally, the city's first dedicated bus lane was built in 2024 to improve service efficiency.
