- Description/Agenda
- Request for Proposal Sevier County is soliciting responses for an economic feasibility study for the restoration of rail operations for historic and scenic opportunities in Marysvale Canyon, Sevier County, Utah. The project involves the re-establishment of a narrow-gauge railroad along the Sevier River. The rail line was abandoned in the 1980s and was converted into a pedestrian pathway for outdoor recreation. We are interested in a study to understand the implications of restoring railroad operations for purposes of historic and scenic qualities for people visiting the region. The Georgetown Loop Railroad near Denver is a good comparison for this project. Interested firms are encouraged to obtain the request for proposals for further details and associated deadlines for submitting. Contact Malcolm Nash at mrnash@sevier.utah.gov for more information.
