Bus/Train $2.00 USD per person (includes transferring from bus to train and walking 5-20 minutes)—available only from 6:30 am to 10:30 pm. Bus stops are located in the airport parking structure between Terminal One and Terminal Two.
Utah Transit Authority (UTA) provides both city bus and light rail transportation (TRAX) at low cost. Any trips between the conference site (University of Utah HSEB & University Guest House and Residence Halls) and SLC Airport will take about an hour and will require at least one transfer.
UTA TRAX is Salt Lake Valley’s light rail system. It has two main lines – the University line and the Sandy/Salt Lake line. University Guest House is situated adjacent to one of the stops on the University line, near the end of the route. The other end of the route is at the EnergySolutions Arena in downtown Salt Lake City.
The University line connects to the Sandy/Salt Lake line in downtown. This line travels much of the Wasatch front, down to Sandy.
Many of Salt Lake City’s major attractions, from Temple Square and Trolley Square to EnergySolutions Arena and the Gateway District, are easily accessible from TRAX stops.
