Project Overview
The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) constructed a Restricted Crossing U-Turn (RCUT) intersection at US-89/91 and SR-23 (Center Street) in Wellsville.
An RCUT intersection improves safety by changing how left turns are made. Instead of turning left directly at the intersection, drivers on Center Street turn right onto US-89/91 and proceed to a designated U-turn pocket to continue in their desired direction. These intersections are well-suited for rural, high-speed roadways and help reduce the risk of severe crashes, such as head-on and angle collisions, by simplifying driver decision-making.
This design safely accommodates a wide range of vehicles, including farm equipment and semi-trucks with trailers. Each direction includes a 16-foot turning lane and 12-foot through lanes, and the U-turn locations are designed to allow large vehicles to navigate the intersection safely and efficiently.
