Ward hill cut marks federal aid road progress near Vernal
The Uintah Basin story highlights the Ward hill cut on a federal aid project destined to connect Roosevelt to Vernal. Engineers moved 67000 cubic yards of earth at a cost exceeding 110000, replacing a dangerous dugway with a safer gravel route that shortens the road by a quarter mile and strengthens the national highway from Salt Lake to Vernal.
