SALT LAKE CITY — Nevermind bronze, silver and gold, newly-released data is all about the green when it comes to how much Utah benefited economically from the 2002 Winter Olympics and Paralympics, and how much the state may gain by hosting again in 2034.
FOX 13 News previously reported that the actual cost of the 2002 Olympics, when inflated to 2034 values, was $2.84 billion. Between now and 2035, just how much revenue could Utah see if officially chosen to host the 2034 games? The Gardner Institute estimates that number at $6.6 billion. If the federal government helps upgrade public transportation or improve highways for the games, Utah could benefit even more.However, Downen acknowledged that the new games could create additional growing pains for Utah.
Downen added that it's up to legislators to take countermeasures to be proactive about addressing potential issues.
