We thought the Chick-fil-A in Sugarhouse was SLC's worst drive-thru. Turns out we were wrong.
One person called a Foothill Village location ‘potentially dangerous,’ and a former city planner called it ‘unnerving.’
She added that “exiting Foothill Village from this access is also a nightmare — it’s difficult to see around the cars if you’re brave enough to turn left. If you’re turning right, you just hope that the drivers barreling down 2300 East see you. You’re turning right from a stop — they’re at full throttle — it’s really unnerving.”
Beyond the traffic safety problems at the Foothill Village site, Giraud said, is the emissions generated by slow-moving or idling cars — which is especially problematic during the winter, when inversions make the Salt Lake Valley’s air dangerously dirty. The former colleague told her the city’s planning commission OK’d the location as a “conditional use” site. “What the planning commission was thinking when they approved this chokehold is beyond my imagination,” Girard said.
The commission voted unanimously to approve Chick-fil-A’s project, contingent on its compliance with the Sugar House Business District master plan, including facing the front door toward 2100 South and moving the drive-thru to the back of the building —However, traffic problems still resulted, and Chick-fil-A now is working with the city to try to alter the site to alleviate some of the backed-up traffic.
