The Immersive Van Gogh Industrial Complex Needs to Go Outside

Take Nevada’s Loneliest Road to Eureka
US 50 is not trying to entertain you every five miles, which is exactly why it works. Stop in Eureka for old brick buildings, mountain air, a surprisingly good lunch, and the feeling that you’ve wandered onto a movie set before the crew arrived.

To report road or sign damage, please fill out the service request form using the button below. Service Request Form The service request form opens in a new tab. Class B & C Road Program The Class B & C road system with a funding program was established by the Utah Legislature in 1937 as a means of providing assistance to counties and incorporated municipalities for the improvement of roads and streets throughout the State. The funds differ from ordinary local revenues inasmuch as they are subject to administrative direction by the State in accordance with legislative provisions. The Utah Department of Transportation (opens in a new tab) is the administrative authority on behalf of the State (Utah Code 72-2-109). The procedures and regulations are designed to function by mutual accord among all agencies concerned. They have the approval and endorsement of both the Utah Association of Counties (opens in a new tab) and the Utah League of Cities and Towns (opens in a new tab). Class B & C Roads: All public highways, roads, or streets that are designated as Class B by the county or Class C by the municipality having jurisdictional authority to do so. Counties and municipalities cannot designate Class B or Class C roads outside of their geographical boundaries, with the exception that Class B roads can exist inside municipal boundaries (Utah Codes 17-50-305, 72-3-103, and 72-3-104).
