TRAX
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.
