Title: UT 212 apparently decommissioned
Post by: Kniwt on April 18, 2016, 11:30:25 AM
I can't find anything that specifically says this has happened, but the route shields along I-15 on the Exit 10 signs have all been greened over recently ... and 212 no longer is listed on UDOT's official highway reference page: https://maps.udot.utah.gov/highway/f?p=184:4

At a grand total of a mere 1.3 miles, it's not like the route was even signed anymore once off the freeway, and it just went into the center of Washington City along Old 91 and ended at a signal.

There was an article back around 2012 or so mentioning that SR-212 was turned back to Washington City; I'm surprised that it took this long for the 212 shields to disappear on I-15 (or be greened over...you know what I mean).

I'm new to this particular discussion and my question regarding this is 1) When was U-212 commissioned and 2) what communities were the starting and end points of U-212?

I took this exit last summer and noticed no shields for UT 212. I wonder if this is an unsigned route or if it was transferred to Washington City for maintenance. The Google Street View seems to show some recent paving along the route based on the July 2013 imagery.

I'm pretty sure that it was transferred to Washington City, as the official highway reference page has nothing on it anymore.
