SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Utah Transit Authority has been given the green light on a nearly $239 million budget.

UTA's trustees approved the 2007 budget yesterday. Which includes money to buy 21 new vans for the agency's vanpool program. The budget also presumes UTA will receive some funding from the quarter-cent sales-tax hike to build TRAX lines.

Also yesterday, the board of trustees approved the renaming of the Delta Center TRAX station. It will now be called the "Arena" station.

Board members say they wanted something that would be descriptive to the passenger so they would know exactly where they were at in the system.
