ROAD SAFETY
Safety at the US-89/6600 South intersection
There have been several “near misses”, almost accidents, at the light where 6600 South insects US-89.
There are several problems with people leaving Uintah and pulling out onto US-89.
First, please be aware that there are three lanes on 6600 South at the intersection.
1- The center lane goes straight ahead across US-89 to Smitty’s, Pitchers Sports, and the hotel. You should not turn right or left from this center lane. Straight ahead only. Do NOT turn left from the center lane.
2- The left lane is the only lane that should be used to turn left onto US-89 northbound.
3- The right lane is the only lane that should be used to turn right onto US-89 southbound. The right turn can only be made on a green light.
There is “no turn” on red.
