Big-D Construction Completes First Phase of the Utah Transit Authority Clean Fuels Technology Center

SALT LAKE CITY, UT — Featuring a new wash building, facilities for both satellite and integrated diesel fueling with an existing CNG bus fueling building, and a parking lot for employees and visitors of Utah Transit Authority (UTA), Big-D Construction recently marked the completion of its first phase of UTA’s Depot District Clean Fuels Technology Center (DDCFTC).

The new DDCFTC will ultimately become an 80,000-square foot bus maintenance facility to store, operate, maintain, and service 135 buses on a regular basis. The facility will also contain room for future expansion. Phase II is now underway and will add 132,892 square feet of administration, operation, and maintenance facilities, as well as canopied parking for the entire fleet of natural gas and electric vehicles. The entire $95-million project is expected to be completed in spring 2023.

“Our partnership with UTA has been a tremendous success so far, and we’re pleased with the progress we’ve made,” said Jim Allison, Vice President of Big-D Construction. “We have much work to do, but it’s with great pride that we look to continue revitalizing an area of town with a project that will not only benefit UTA, but the thousands of Utahns it serves every day.”

Big-D partnered on the UTA project with Stantec. UTA’s DDCFTC project is being constructed in order to achieve a variety of sustainable goals, which will include the reduction of environmental harms and performance optimization. Sustainable features include heated floors throughout the facility, the recycling of existing materials, and the implementation of modern translucent glazing systems to provide natural daylight and reduce glare.
