After being considered a dangerous road with even more dangerous drivers, the Utah Department Of Transportation plans to invest more funding to improve U.S. Route 6.
PROVO, Utah — U.S. Highway 6 between Spanish Fork and Green River has historically been considered by many a dangerous road. Now video taken by Karrie Palmer on US-6 shows not one, not two, but four cars passing double yellow lines to pass a semi truck.
"Two of our friends from right here in the neighborhood were up here last Saturday returning from a service project when the other driver crossed over and hit them head on, they're both very badly hurt," Pogue said. "It's a mountain roadway that is a windy roadway, two-way traffic, no positive median barrier there," said Sgt. Cameron Roden with the Utah Highway Patrol."A lot of times the more serious crashes have been caused by people who have crossed over and gone head-on with other vehicles."
Some improvements include widening the road to four lanes in areas, installing barriers in some parts, and creating passing lanes.
