Vernal Avenue | Main Street to Steinaker Reservoir | Paving

UDOT will be extending the life of pavement along US-191 (Vernal Avenue) between US-40 and Steinaker Overlook.

Project Overview

UDOT is improving five miles of US-191 (Vernal Avenue). Road work will take place from US-40 (Main Street) to the Steinaker Reservoir overlook. Crews will remove and replace the surface of the asphalt to help extend the life of the road. The project will also include safety and accessibility improvements, such as replacing some sidewalks and pedestrian ramps, installing new guardrail, and adding new road striping and signs.

These improvements will make US-191 safer and more reliable for everyone who travels through the area.
