SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Inland Port Authority (UIPA) today unveiled an amended project area plan for the Skyline Corridor, an initiative aimed at bolstering economic growth across Sanpete, Sevier, and Wayne counties. The plan was introduced during UIPA’s January 6 board meeting and includes expanded project boundaries to accommodate critical housing and business development in Salina and Manti.
The Skyline Corridor Project Area, first approved in October 2024, is designed to foster economic diversification, create high-quality jobs, and attract private investment through enhanced infrastructure and community partnerships. The amended plan incorporates additional parcels to address regional needs, particularly for affordable housing, while ensuring long-term economic sustainability.
“The amended Skyline Corridor plan reflects our commitment to empowering Central Utah communities with the tools they need to thrive,” said Jenna Draper, Associate Vice President of Regional Project Area Development. “By collaborating with local leaders and focusing on strategic investments, we’re making way for a more resilient future.”
The project focuses on industries such as advanced manufacturing, logistics, and renewable energy, with performance indicators including job creation, infrastructure improvements, and increased capital investment. UIPA anticipates final approval of the amended plan during its March board meeting.
The amendment will likely undergo a final review by the UIPA Board in March for formal adoption.
