Alfred Knotts, the transportation planning manager at City Hall, said stationing the officers at the intersection also allow them to more quickly respond to an accident. Knotts said police officers in vehicles will be posted at locations where backups are commonplace during the ski season. The intersections are: • Park Avenue and Deer Valley Drive • S.R. 224 and S.R. 248 • Bonanza Drive and S.R. 248 • Bonanza Drive and Deer Valley Drive The intersections are along important routes out of Park City from Park City Mountain Resort and Deer Valley Resort. There are usually backups at each of the intersections on busy ski days. Knotts said the officers will be stationed at the intersections from TANZI PROPST/PARK RECORD Traffic became heavier in Park City as the holiday week approached, including on Bonanza Drive on Thursday evening. The Park City Police Department plans to post officers at key intersections between Dec. 26 and Jan. 2 in an effort to guard against unusually bad traffic jams. Dec. 26 until Jan. 2 between approximately 4 p.m. and 7 p.m., three hours that generally cover the skier traffic as well as commuters. “The avoidance of the gridlock,” Knotts said as he explained the reasoning for posting officers at the intersections. Officials say, as an example, an officer at an intersection is beneficial since a driver is less apt to block a cross street if a police vehicle is present. Backups in Park City have been blamed before on vehicles blocking an intersection when the stoplight changes. Knotts also said City Hall officials worked with the Utah Department of Transportation as the plans for the holiday were crafted. All of the intersections with stoplights in Park City are on state-controlled roads. Knotts said state transportation officials will modify the timing of the stoplights to prioritize traffic on S.R. 224 over the cross streets between 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Much of the traffic leaving the two resorts uses the state highway during the period between 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Knotts suggests skiers and snowboarders use the free buses rather than driving personal vehicles to the resorts. He also cautioned drivers not to use bus-only lane on S.R. 224 between Canyons Village and Kimball Junction. Collision on slopes reported A snowboarder ran into a young skier, the authorities say JAY HAMBURGER The Park Record The Park City Police Department on Wednesday issued a citation to a snowboarder after a collision with a skier on the slopes at Park City Mountain Resort, the department said. Phil Kirk, a police captain, said officers were called to the bottom of the Homerun ski run at 1:22 p.m. after the father of the 11-year-old skier reported the collision to resort staffers. The 11-year-old was descending the run when the snowboarder hit him, breaking the boy’s skis, Kirk said. The accident occurred in a slow-skiing zone, he said. A PCMR ski patroller saw the aftermath of the collision and asked the boy if he needed assistance. The boy and his father then identified the snowboarder close to restrooms and an argument started with the snowboarder, Kirk said. Officers responded and determined the snowboarder did not yield to a skier who was down the hill, he said. The Police Department also said the snowboarder was traveling too fast in the slow-skiing zone. The boy was taken to an urgent-care facility for treatment. Kirk said he may have suffered a concussion. The Police Department was not provided details about the boy’s condition. The Police Department cited the snowboarder, a 22-year-old man from Salt Lake City, on a class B misdemeanor count of reckless skiing. PCMR declined to comment, saying information would be provided by the Police Department. There are 200+ Restaurants in the Park City area...
