FrontRunner has been serving Utahns for 15 years — but not on Sundays.
The Utah Transit Authority’s commuter rail system serves riders from Ogden to Provo, but only operates Monday through Saturday. The train provides service every 30 minutes during peak travel times on weekdays — and every 60 minutes on Saturdays — but the agency does not currently have the infrastructure to run service on Sundays, a spokesperson said.
However, Sunday service could be added after the ongoing ”FrontRunner Forward” project is completed.
