By 2011, Utah can expect to be on the road to having one of the most updated and accessible compressed natural-gas infrastructures in the Mountain West.

Plans to upgrade and develop the state's CNG corridor are well under way, according to an executive with Utah's largest natural-gas utility.

Today, the state and utility own and operate 25 NGV fueling stations that are open to the public
