Lions club seeks highway designation to boost Vernal route
The Vernal Lions Club and Uintah County Commission plan to petition the Utah legislature to designate a section from Halfwas Hollow on US 40 to Thompson as a secondary state highway. The route would link Navaho Reservation, Mesa Verde, and Natural Bridge parks to Yellowstone as a north south corridor, with Vernal as hub. Officials note uneven maintenance of the Uintah Basin road and urge state road committee action. The club also invited the Associated Clubs of Eastern Utah to Vernal for a future meeting and hosts a ladies night January 27 at Uintah High School.
