How to take FrontRunner from Provo to SLC airport

Posted on 10:03 by Unknown
I see this question a lot: how do I get from Provo or Orem to the SLC International Airport entirely by train (UTA FrontRunner/Trax)?

Here I assume we start from Provo, where BYU is located. All this information is "as-is" and may not be up-to-date, but I imagine it'll be valid for quite a while...

Estimated time from Provo to SLC Int'l Airport: Just over an hour (on weekdays).

So... easy peasy, lemon-squeezy:
  1. Drive or get a ride to the Provo Intermodal Station. Currently they are piloting free long-term parking in that parking lot, so feel free to take advantage of that (I have).
  2. Print your ticket at one of the booths on either side of the boarding platform. I think it's between $5 and $7 one-way for an adult rider. Your ticket includes Trax transportation when you get to SLC.
  3. Board the next FrontRunner departing Provo (northbound, obviously... but at this time, they only go north).
  4. Get off at the North Temple Station in Salt Lake City (not the Salt Lake City/Central Station). Go up the escalators or elevator to the Trax station on the bridge. Takes about 3-5 minutes to get up there from the FrontRunner.
  5. Board the Green Line Trax going west. Its final stop is the airport.
That's all... it's typically quite an enjoyable trip, since the FrontRunner has free wifi that works pretty well.
