Facility Overview
Situated in the rapidly developing corridor of West Salt Lake City, the parking facility at 1955 W 400 N (also identified at 1991 W 400 N) offers an open-air surface lot designed for seamless vehicular ingress and spacious maneuverability. Located just west of Redwood Road and minutes north of North Temple, the facility features a flat, level grade that completely eliminates the vertical clearance and height restrictions typically found in subterranean garages and multi-level parking decks. As an open-sky layout, the facility effortlessly accommodates standard sedans, compact hatchbacks, crossover SUVs, heavy-duty pickup trucks (including dual-rear-wheel models), transit vans, and commercial fleet vehicles.

Visitor & Driver Tips
When planning your trip, set your GPS navigation specifically to 1955 W 400 N or 1991 W 400 N, approaching from Redwood Road for the smoothest turn-in. During major events held at the Utah State Fairpark or during high-demand summer fair dates, nearby traffic along North Temple and 400 North can increase; plan to arrive 20 to 30 minutes earlier than your scheduled engagement. Keep your license plate information handy to complete digital mobile parking registration swiftly, and ensure all valuables are safely secured out of sight to guarantee a smooth and worry-free parking experience.
