The bridge connects two trails on either side of the park: the White City trail on the north, which connects to Big Bear Park and the Sandy Canal Trail to the south, which connects to the Porter Rockwell Trail in Draper. “This is the best thing to happen to White City in many years,” said Paulina Flint, mayor of the White City Township, at a ribbon-cutting ceremony held for the bridge. She noted the increased connectivity that the bridge creates for residents of the surrounding neighborhood. “This is so valuable to all of our communities. The connectivity to Bear Park in a safe route—not having to walk Sego Lily with no sidewalks and the dangerous streets on Seventh East.” Sandy Mayor Kurt Bradburn was also on hand, and spoke about how even though the bridge may be in White City boundaries, it still benefits many Sandy residents whose children attend nearby schools. He also commended the speed with which the project moved from approval to finished construction. “I have four little kids and I think we started a Lego project around the same time I signed those permits, and I still haven’t completed that,” he said. The bridge is just one part of a larger Salt Lake County project that also included the creation of a new trail going from the bridge to 10600 South.
