Narrative:
Preflight check of slc NOTAMS indicated that runway 16R was closed as well as numerous txwys around runway 16R. On arrival at slc with executed a visual approach to runway 16L. Crew brief of the approach indicated we planned our rollout to make a turnoff at taxiway A1. Shortly after T/D, tower cleared us to exit at taxiway A2. I quickly checked my airfield diagram and could not locate it. Visually acquired the A2 taxiway too late (and too fast) to make a safe turnoff. Tower got really miffed that we didn't make the high speed. Neither the field NOTAMS, ATIS or airfield diagram indicated the existence of taxiway A2. If they expect us to make that high speed turnoff, they should inform us sometime before T/D. They should also NOTAM into existence taxiway A2.

Title: ACTC TWR CTLR UNHAPPY WHEN ACR MLG DOES NOT MAKE TURN OFF AT NEW UNCHARTED TXWY FROM ACTIVE RWY.
Narrative: PREFLT CHK OF SLC NOTAMS INDICATED THAT RWY 16R WAS CLOSED AS WELL AS NUMEROUS TXWYS AROUND RWY 16R. ON ARR AT SLC WITH EXECUTED A VISUAL APCH TO RWY 16L. CREW BRIEF OF THE APCH INDICATED WE PLANNED OUR ROLLOUT TO MAKE A TURNOFF AT TXWY A1. SHORTLY AFTER T/D, TWR CLRED US TO EXIT AT TXWY A2. I QUICKLY CHKED MY AIRFIELD DIAGRAM AND COULD NOT LOCATE IT. VISUALLY ACQUIRED THE A2 TXWY TOO LATE (AND TOO FAST) TO MAKE A SAFE TURNOFF. TWR GOT REALLY MIFFED THAT WE DIDN'T MAKE THE HIGH SPD. NEITHER THE FIELD NOTAMS, ATIS OR AIRFIELD DIAGRAM INDICATED THE EXISTENCE OF TXWY A2. IF THEY EXPECT US TO MAKE THAT HIGH SPD TURNOFF, THEY SHOULD INFORM US SOMETIME BEFORE T/D. THEY SHOULD ALSO NOTAM INTO EXISTENCE TXWY A2.
