City staff, including Peck, attended the grand opening in June 2006 of the IKEA in Canton, Mich., and witnessed the traffic jams there. They also took note of the store opening in Tempe, Ariz. During that 2004 opening, traffic jams on the highway caused off-ramp closures, and dozens of people parked their vehicles on the freeway and jumped the fence to get to the store.
IKEA-goers in Draper will not be allowed to exit off 12300 South to get to the megastore. Residents and employees have city-approved dashboard signs to let them through. People visiting those neighborhoods and businesses will be allowed through without a sign, said Draper spokeswoman Maridene Hancock.
