Federal aid road route to Roosevelt via city cemetery eyed
Survey details for a federal aid road from Myton to Roosevelt outline a new alignment. The proposed path would run from Wm Zone's corner four miles north of Myton, cross the Harris ranch, and enter Roosevelt near Main Street by the Continental Oil tank. Rights of way would cost the same as an airline route, with two dugways and a hairpin curve removed. The plan entails a 30 foot deep cut, 90 feet wide top, 300 feet long, and a 12 foot highest fill, plus fence barriers and canal relocations. The route remains undecided but likely.
