I.   INTRODUCTION
A.   Overview
West Jordan and the surrounding communities have experienced significant growth and development over the last several years. The most recent 2020 census shows that West Jordan had a population of 116,691 and had experienced a population increase of approximately 13,250 since the previous 2010 survey. This significant growth is expected to continue.
This Transportation Master Plan (TMP) guides transportation infrastructure investments for the future by addressing several goals identified by West Jordan City (City). Key to planning for West Jordan’s transportation needs is an understanding of the roadway network’s existing and future operation. Once existing conditions are established, roadway conditions are forecasted to future year 2033 and 2050 to identify deficiencies in the roadway network that may occur due to land development and the resulting population growth.
This TMP also covers City transportation management-related best practices, such as access management standards, a safety analysis, traffic calming, connectivity, traffic impact study standards, and truck routes. An interactive online mapping website has been created to summarize this TMP.

West Jordan General Plan (2023)
The 2023 West Jordan General Plan provides information regarding the status of transportation, housing, growth, demographics, land use, and economic development within the City. Included in this document is a map of potential development and annexation plans. Growth management strategies are presented, as well as land use guiding principles. The transportation guiding principles in the General Plan are to “provide a safe and efficient multi-modal transportation system” and “improve the aesthetic quality of the City’s streets.” The guiding framework of the General Plan is sustainability with a balance between social health and opportunity, economic opportunity, and environmental stewardship.
