An inland port in Spanish Fork is closer to reality as last night the Utah Inland Port Authority Board approved a draft of a plan to build the 'Verk Industrial Park.'
On Monday, the Utah Inland Port Authority Board approved a draft of a plan to build the"Verk Industrial Park." Ben Hart, the executive director of the Utah Inland Port Authority, said the port will benefit Utah's economy for years to come.
However, Hart believes the port would mean more goods being transported by train, which is a good thing for Utah’s environment. Some environmental advocates, like Orem resident Denise Devynck, are even optimistic about working together with the port authority.
