Hopes high for SLC Ballpark neighborhood businesses as 300 West road construction finally ends
"I honestly would get off the freeway and be like, 'Oh, well, welcome to the front line.' I couldn't even get into my own driveway on days," sais Christina Johnson.
"With the rebuild, it still carries the same amount of traffic that it did before, but now it has protected bike lane, so it's a two protected bike path on the left side of the road, we added hundred of trees, better storm water, and continuous sidewalks," said Salt Lake City Transportation Director Jon Larsen.
"I know it impacted businesses on this street in terms of decreased traffic," said Ballpark Community Council Chair Amy J. Hawkins."I would get on the phone and make phone calls to clients because I hadn't see the ones that would normally come in every month because they would sit in traffic just to get to 13th and to my shop for 45 minutes," she said.
"They got rid of my on-street parking, so I have to have people park in the back," she explained."But right now since my business is down 90%, I can't even put the black top in to make that an actual parking."
