An internal memo sent to UTA employees stated that the agency plans to refocus its staff on providing baseline service to commuters across the valley.
The ski bus makes its way up Big Cottonwood Canyon on Sunday, Jan. 7, 2024. UTA plans to solicit bids from third-party vendors to help the agency refocus on its baseline commuter routes.
The ski bus in particular creates fluctuations in operator staffing needs, supervisor workload and vehicle maintenance that lead to “undue demands” on employees, the memo notes. Officials pointed toward the vanpool shuttles UTA leased for ski resort employees in the Cottonwood canyons, which accounted for about 15% of ski service boardings this season, as a change that helped keep ski bus seats open for passengers.
