Overview

Project Overview

On August 17, 2026, UDOT will begin a project to improve 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 the top layer of old asphalt and replace it with new pavement 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.
