Digital Infrastructure Study

In 2021, the MSD received $50,000 of EDA CARES Act funding to complete a digital infrastructure study with its member communities. The project officially kicked off in February 2022, with the consultant analyzing available data related to broadband access and community assets.

The first opportunity for residents to participate is to participate in the Utah Internet Speed Test Campaign at speedtest.utah.gov to better understand internet speeds in MSD communities. Your input through this study will be essential for helping the project team recognize areas of greatest need and opportunity as it relates to broadband infrastructure, device access, digital literacy, technical support, and more.

You all can help us in this effort by completing a quick survey: https://arcg.is/1TePWK. The MSD Digital Connectivity Survey is open to all residents of Salt Lake County. Your input will help us to understand the individual needs of our member communities, and compare those to the broader County. If you have any questions about the survey or the study itself, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. In the coming weeks, we will be working to distribute the survey to community members across MSD-areas.
