Uintah Basin Road Project Sparks Statewide Support

State leaders and business figures back a rail line or air route to the Uintah basin aiming to shorten travel in and out, open Utah’s “picture places,” and access top fishing areas.

The legislature approved 10 million for health and vocational education in the year, with Winter allocating between 1.2 and 1.6 million. The county seeks a district nurse and raises participation in state plans.
