The petition backed by UDOT is ahead and to the purpose about why it’s essential to have fencing put in on this stretch freeway:

The objective this letter is to request that protecting fencing be put in on the UT-202 overpass bridging I-80 in Magna, Utah. Approximately 200 ft on the west aspect and east aspect this stretch street needs to be fenced.
