PROJECT NUMBER: UT FTBL 7133(1)

PROJECT NAME: CANYON RIMS ROAD

PROJECT DETAILS:

The UT FTBL 7133(1) Canyon Rims Road project is located approximately 32 miles southeast of Moab, UT in Eastern Utah. The project crosses through Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) Right of Way (ROW) and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands, providing access to land managed by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management as part of the Canyon Rims Special Recreation Management Area. The project consists of two segments of Needles Overlook Road, broken into Schedule A and Option X, and one Segment of US 191 at the intersection of Needles Overlook Road, identified as Option Y.

Schedule A and Option X Needles Overlook Road is 22 miles of paved BLM recreational roadway located on top of a large plateau encompassing 100,273 acres south of Moab, Utah. Needles Overlook Road provides access to the Needles Overlook, Anticline Overlook Road, Anticline Overlook, two campgrounds, and several trailheads. It begins at the intersection with US 191 and continues west/northwest to the Needles Overlook.

Schedule A Schedule A rehabilitates 9.28 Miles of Needles Overlook Road, beginning from the end of the road at the existing Needles Overlook parking area, continuing east 6.98 miles to the intersection with Anticline Overlook Road, and then extending an additional 2.3 Miles to the East. The work elements include pavement patching, pavement chip sealing, full depth reclamation and pavement overlay, roadway embankment slope flattening, ditch and shoulder reconditioning, minor drainage improvements, selective clearing to reduce vegetation adjacent to the roadway, signing, striping, and delineator replacement, new pavement markings, and revegetation at locations of fill slope flattening. The Needles Overlook parking areas will also receive new surface treatment and pavement markings.

Option X Option X begins where Schedule A ends and continues an additional 1.52 miles east along Needles Overlook Road. The work elements include full depth reclamation and pavement overlay, roadway fill slope flattening, shoulder reconditioning, signing, striping, and delineator replacement, and revegetation at locations of fill slope flattening.

Approximately 10 miles of existing Needles Overlook Road, between the end of Option X and the intersection with US 191, will not be improved under this project.

Option Y Option Y constructs a full turn lane build-out at the T intersection of US 191 and Needles Overlook Road and provides a dedicated left-turn, acceleration, and deceleration lanes on US 191 for 0.82 miles. The work includes building embankment, minor drainage improvements, new asphalt pavement and chip seal, chip sealing the existing pavement of US 191, signing, striping and delineator replacement, and cattle guardrail and fence replacement.
