I ended up with a chipped windshield due to this and the other operator driving/accelerating in the shoulder kicking up rocks as he passed.

The Utah Department of Transportation has received your request and we will be looking into the issue. Thank you for taking the time to let us know.

I use this on ramp five days a week and there are near misses that I see literally 2-3 times a week. This is absolutely asinine this has been reported for years and UDOT has yet to remedy this extreme danger. I see a screenshot of another thread that UDOT contracted out an engineer to come up with a solution a year ago. I appreciate the attention to this danger but here we are a year later with no progress. Are we over complicated this? To me the fix is relatively cheap and quick and shouldn't require an engineering firm or a contractor to fix this. What's wrong with UDOT installing a couple of large signs on the approach from the west bound lane to the NB ramp with a well-lit and flashing "STOP AHEAD, MERGING TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP", then a couple of large stop signs at the merge with red flashers and more signs that merging traffic does not stop. No need to spend a bunch of money to add a lane or on a stoplight that people will need to wait at unnecessarily

This ramp is a high priority for UDOT to improve and we are working to get a project funded in the next couple of years. We have worked to get the concept completed, and are now working on getting the funding in place. We appreciate your concerns and understand this is a location that a project would greatly improve. Thank you.

We are working towards funding for a project and have communicated this to the citizens.
