BOUNTIFUL — Some 96 percent of residents surveyed by the Preservation for Main Street Committee are opposed to a “rail system” or streetcar option. An article in last week’s Clipper said 96 residents were opposed.

That’s according to information provided by the group fighting against the option being studied by UTA for Bountiful’s Main Street. The committee contacted 450 residents. The survey and a demonstration early last week were part of a grassroots effort to show opposition to a streetcar option for Main Street. UTA accepted public comment until March 31.
