Utah is receiving an $800,000 federal grant to determine how to repair or rebuild 40 at-risk bridges along a rural freight corridor.
The Federal Highway Administration planning grant was awarded to the Interstate 84 Uintah Junction to Echo Junction Feasibility Study that will be conducted by the Utah Department of Transportation. Uintah Junction takes its name from the town Uintah, located 25 miles north of Salt Lake City at the mouth of the Weber River. The other junction in the project is named for the town of Echo, a former Pony Express canyon trail.
