Utah transportation officials say that they'll expand a program that they call 'one of the most advanced wrong-way driver detection and warning systems' in the US.
UDOT officials explained that they originally implemented a different wrong-way system in 2019 but reversed course when they learned of more effective technology on the market when speaking with other transportation officials across the U.S.
Officials revealed that they believe the new system matches up with the direction they'd like to go during Friday's meeting. It was pushed for by a UDOT and Utah Highway Patrol task force that reviewed traffic safety measures across the state last year.
